[AccessD] Form_Error event will NOTalways fire

Are you saying that you handle all errors at the form level?  Could it be
that an error is happening in code and is caught and processed so that the
form error event is not fired?

I never use the Form_Error event.  I perform validation/error handling in
code tied to the individual control itself or in a module.

What would cause the Form_Error event NOT to fire.. I have been having a
problem with this, and can't get a handle on it..

Example, The user enters an invalid item in a combo (limit to list =
Yes) the user goes to move from that control and is unable to, the
problem is the Form_Error event VERY intermittently does not fire notify
the user of the problem. So the user thinks the system is locked up...

This is system wide and not just one or two forms..

SetWarning is NOT the problem...

Any Ideals
