After update

[TomK via AccessMonster.com]

I'm using an After Update event on a form to update one field with the
current date when a checkbox is checked, but the date doesn't display until I
scroll down the form. Is there some way to get the date to display right
after the box is checked (or at least once the next record is selected)?

Thanks,
Tom

Sounds like you have a control that has a Name that is different from the
name of the date field.

In the AfterUpdate code, use the name of the control, not its field name.

Thanks, Allen! That's what it was all right.

I appreciate it!
