[AccessD] Order of Events

I have always been wondering about this, and found this link. It might be
useful to someone on the list.

It includes a tree that breaks down the type of event you want. Here's the
tree. You'll probably have to visit the above to get the whole story, but
this is a start:

A single action, such as moving from one control to another, can trigger
several different events, which occur in a particular sequence. Knowing when
events occur and in what order they occur is important because it can affect
how and when your macros or event procedures run. For example, if you have
two event procedures that are to be run in a certain order, you want to make
sure that the events they're associated with occur in that order.
