Anyone know if there is an Event that occurs when you open a form AFTER it
is visible on the screen? I've tried Open, Activate, Load, Current, Got
Focus. None of them do. ???

Sometimes the obvious may elude us. If the form is already open, why are you
issuing a DoCmd.OpenForm? Why not put code like this in the same place :
Forms!MyForm.me thod
or
Forms!MyForm.Pr operty =
or
Forms!MyForm!My Control <something>

I can see why my request makes little sense. I'm trying to do something
that Access really isn't designed for. I want to create an MDE that will
function as a utility. I'd like the StartupForm to appear, then code
immediately begin to run with no intervention from the user. No matter what
I try, the code runs before the form appears on the screen. I finally gave
up and put a Command button on it that the user must click to start the
procedure.

Have the startup form say Me.Visible=True at the point where it is about
to run the code & you want it to become visible.
Your question really was, "how can I make a form visible before it runs some
code?", not "what events occur after a form has become visible" :-)

Well... You're right. I focused only on how to run the code after the form
became visible. It never dawned on me that it could be done the other way
around, make the form visible before the code is run. Thanks.

Just place doevents command at the start of the your code.
If there is a few other places were you "update" the screen in the code,
again just put DoEvents at that point in the code.
The event driven nature of ms-access means that some screen updates and
drawing does NOT occur during processing (99%of the time, this is the best
way, as you don't waste tons of processing to figure out when to update the
screen...you simply wait until the mouse appears, and then draw everything.
DoEvents will flush all those pending draws, and update stuff out of the
buffer).

I had tried DoEvents, it, surprisingly, didn't do what I needed. Me.Visible
= True in the Activate Event, however did.

I'm using a TextBox_Leave event to trigger the saving of a value to my

I'm having troubles with a Symbol 9000 device (Compact Framework v 1.1) when

multiple times)

Which is the event sequence when a gridview button (for update) is clicked
and the page is post back? I am also a bit confused when to use
..IsPostBack(). If my page data is changing maybe in every 10 or 20 seconds,
should I use .IsPostback? If not, then the gridviews databinding in the page
should be written in Page_Load or in the other events like
SelectedIndexChanged, RowCommand where the click is handled?
TIA
