[AccessD] How to force an after update event in another form?

Thank you, Doris.

The problem is that the after update event also checks other controls on the 
main form to make sure they areen't blank and calls a couple of other 
procedures that are also private to the main form code module.

If I understood you correctly, you suggested I put something like this in 
the F_Students form code behind:

Public Sub P_CallClassSectionIDAfterUpdate()
  cboClassSectionID_AfterUpdate
End Sub

I tried that but the popup Class Selection form code couldn't see the sub. 
If I put it in one of the modules (I have an M_MiscFunctions module for 
things like this), it recognizes the sub but I'm no better off that before.

Thank you, Penn
