Message Box for certain records

K

Kez

Hi again
And thanks for all the help you have given me in the past.
I have 3 check boxes and I need a message to pop up if check box "Do Not
Solicit" is ticked on certain records.
I have tried Private Sub Form_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
If Me.Do_Not_Solicit = "True" Then MsgBox "This client is not to be
contacted" End If but it didn't work
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Larry but that didn't work either I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Any more thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

Copy the code you're putting into the entire Oncurrent event for the form
and paste it into your next post. Be sure that the name in
me![Do_Not_Solicit ] really is the name of the checkbox, not its caption.

Thanks Larry
My code is below (copied and pasted)

Private Sub Form_Current()
If Me.Do_Not_Solicit = "True" Then
MsgBox "This client is not to be contacted"
End If
End Sub

Change "True" to True and it should work
