Joe Create two functions to do your Before and After processing. The Before will return True or False. In BeforeUpdate set cancel according to the function's return value and in your Double-Click do something like: If BeforeFunction()=True then Call AfterFunction() End if Just my suggestion.

If I manually type the data in this text box the Before/AfterUpdate events fire after I tab out of the textbox and everything work just dandy. How this textbox really works though is that the user double-clicks on the textbox and the system date and time are entered in to it automatically. Doing it this way does not cause the Before/AfterUpdate events to fire. I was thinking that I could just call the Before/AfterUpdate events from my double-click event but I am taking advantage of the Cancel variable from these two events. My question is: How can I access the Cancel variable from my On_DblClick event so that I can create my own control code based off of the Cancel variable? Thanks, Joe Rojas jrojas at tnco-inc.com
