Agreed.  The After Update event is the one to use.  Though there's 
something wrong if the Exit event is also not firing when the focus 
moves from the combobox.  This applies whether the combobox is bound or 
not.  In addition, the Change event also should fire when a selection is 
made in the combobox (even though Access Help seems to be out of date 
(and wrong) on this point).

Regards
Steve
