I am using Allen Brown's audit log. However whenever I add a record, it logs as "EditTo" vs. "Insert" in my audType column. I checked my AuditEditEnd method to see what is being passed in. It looks like bWasNewRecord is always a false value.
Everything else works fine. Please help!
here is my code:
Option Compare Database
' Purpose: Audit trail, to track Deletes, Edits, and Inserts.
' Does not audit any Cascading Updates/Deletes.
' Requirements: The table to be audited must have an AutoNumber primary key.
'
Data entry must be through a form.
' Method: Makes a copy of the record in a temp table, and logs the
' change when it is guaranteed. The temp table copes with:
' - multiple deletes at once (continuous/datasheet view)
' - cancelled deletes or failed updates.
' - requirement for sequential numbering in the audit table.
' On a multi-user split (front-end/back-end) database, the
' temp table may reside in the front end, and the audit log
' in the back-end.
' Result: The audit table will contain one record for each deletion or
' insertion, and two records for each edit (before and after).
' Delete Copy of the deleted record, marked "Delete".
' Insert Copy of the new record, marked "Insert".
' Change: Copy of the record before change, marked "EditFrom".
' Copy of the record after change, marked "EditTo".
' This approach, together with the sequential numbering of the
' AutoNumber in the audit table makes tampering with the audit
' log more detectable.
'Note: Record confirmations need to be on. When opening the database:
' If Not
Application.GetOption("Confirm Record Changes") Then
' Application.SetOption ("Confirm Record Changes"), True
' End If
