[AccessD] BeforeUpdate v. AfterUpdate

For a control, I also use .OldValue in the AfterUpdate event and it works as
expected.  However, if the record is saved, the .OldValue becomes equal to
the current value.  This is on a bound form, perhaps that makes a
difference.

Interesting. I just did experiments and don't see how your stuff can work.
In AfterUpdate, I get OldValue = Value, invariably, and I've done about 20
tests. I'm using debug.print to dump the values and in BeforeUpdate they
differ but in AfterUpdate they never differ.

That's interesting, because I use OldValue with AfterUpdate all the time,
and it works just fine.
