Agreed.  The After Update event is the one to use.  Though there's something
wrong if the Exit event is also not firing when the focus moves from the
combobox.  This applies whether the combobox is bound or not.  In addition,
the Change event also should fire when a selection is made in the combobox
(even though Access Help seems to be out of date (and wrong) on this point).

Regards
Steve
