John,

What kind of events ... and how are they trapped?

Subject: [AccessD] List box as a status box

I want to put up a control to display a running status, display then last N
events that occurred.  I 
have never really liked text boxes for this purpose as the last thing
displayed as I always seem to 
end up with scrolling issues and so forth.

I am thinking about using a list control.  This has the advantage (for my
purposes) of allowing me 
to have neat columns for the date / time and the status to be displayed.

Does anyone do this and want to comment on how they make it work?
