[AccessD] Function vs Sub (was: Classes and Events - EVENTSNOTREQUIRED)

Hi Charlotte

Eh, you can't have forgotten that setting Cancel to True in your code of such a sub will return that value to the form?

Not sure I follow, Stuart.  Subs set values like Cancel or process a
keycode.  They don't return them per se.

Which begs the question, why does VBA use Subs for event procedures
which return values such as Cancel or KeyCode?  Aren't these Functions?
