[AccessD] Unbound events

I regret I have to disagree with Drew.

There's no question in my mind that the After_Update event is the one you
need, John. It's the only event that happens after the user has selected
something. 

I'm looking at an unbound form right now, and the after_Update event *does*
fire on the combobox.

If it's not doing so for you then I'd suspect a corrupt form.

For a combo box, you'll want to use the OnClick event.

Perhaps one of the unbounders out there can lend some insight on what events
will fire for unbound controls on unbound forms.  I am trying to do a simple
"set a date in a textbox when a combo selects an item".  I have tried the
AfterUpdate and OnExit of the neither of which seems to be firing.
