Touch screen with AXP forms

[Guest]

Hi all

I'm using modal popup form with a combobox to find a particular record using
the keyboard and mouse. I use the AfterUpdate event in the combobox to
trigger the search having first entered the product code and all works well.
That is until some bright spark suggests that a touchscreen is safer in a
production environment. so my solution was to create on the popup form a
series of command buttions; zero to nine and a backspace button to populate
or edit the combobox. so far so good. But having populated the combobox the
AfterUpdate event now fails to trigger.

How do simulate the AfterUpdate event from another cmd button. Or is there
another solution?

TIA

Simple. Change the AfterUpdate from Private to Public and Call it! Answering
my own question now!! What a wounderful world.
