Query vs Form behavior

G

Guest

I have a query where I have a date field that the users selects from a drop
down [Date]. Then there is another field on the query [Expr1] = [Date].
When I enter a new record on the query it automatically updates the [Expr1]
field. When I created a datasheet based on the query and enter a new record
it does not automaticallly update [Expr1] until I close the form and go back
in. How can you force it to update [Expr1] without closing the form.

In the AfterUpdate event of the Date field on the form, you could have code
to requery the Expr1 field. It would look like

Private Sub Date_AfterEvent()
Expr1.Requery
End if

I warn you against calling a field Date since that is also a function and a
data type in Access. You may be better off with a different name.

Please let me know if this was helpful and if you need more assistance.

I am out of ideas, it may be helpful if you sent me your project (or at least
a small part of it, you can write to me at this address without the double
dashes
