What event does a hotkey generate?

All,
I have a date field in a form that has vba code attached to the 'after
update' event.
Then I setup a hotkey to auto the current date in the same field.
The problem I am having is that when I hit the hotkey sequence the field is
populated with the current date - however my vba code does not work.
Any idea what event the population of the field by a hotkey produces?
Thanks for you help.

None. And for good reason. Programmatic filling of fields typically
does not trigger any event. So you rewrite your code. Perhaps you can
call the <control>_AfterUpdate from the hotkey code.
