Error Checking Fields in a Form - Problem

L

Leslie

I have a big problem. I can create Macros, Event Procedures, etc. for error
checking, but I can't seem to get the system to look at each individual field
as I tab through (the very first time).

If I've typed a character (e.g. a space), then the macros/procedures
kick-off. Basically, I want to completely stop a user the very first time
they try to leave a required field, I don't want to wait for the Save event
to execute the logic.

Any ideas from the experts?

Cheers,

Try the On Exit event. I think you will find that this will do want you
want. Basically, the code behind this event fires when the user attempts to
exit the control.

Paul,

Thank you, that did the trick and it doesn't appear I've lost any of my
functionality!
