For lack of the proper expression, how do I excite a control to cause
events to trigger.
I have a date control and am using a calender form button to fill the
text box with the date.
The text box is bound to a field. All this works great, but now the
date range validation is not
not working and the after update event that did calculations is not
working. This is without question the result of the control not
firing because I'm using code to make the entry. There must be a way
to make the control Dirty or whatever so that the events for the
control fire.
Any ideas?

Validate the date before filling in the field?
Otherwise the event function is a sub routine that can be called.

What you need to do is call the event procedure associated with the
event. Check out the Call statement in Help.

Thanks Bob
But I don't think you call the Validation Event using code?
I guess it requires a workaround.

I have no idea about what you mean in the phrase "Validation Event".
It's not an event associated with any Control, Form, Report or Query
that I've ever seen or heard of before.
The closest I can think of is the "Validation Rule" in the table
design, and that's not controllable via code.
If you mean "Validation Code", that can go into many events, depending
on WHAT is being validated. The control before and/or after_update
events and the Form's Before_Update are the usual places for this.
Please provide an explanation of WHAT you want to do, so we can tell
you the correct way to perform what you want to do. \That's what we're
here for.

My mistake. I didn't realize that the ValidationRule was not a
traditional event.
I'll have to experiment with code in the beforeupdate event to make
sure that the START date entered by my calender form button is <=
2000, and not greater that
the END date. And need to also excite the textbox using code, because
that does not take place now, and the entry goes unnoticed.

The only thing that triggers the validation rule is writing the record
back to the table. That may be adequate, although it's often too late
in the data entry process to be user friendly..

Put the code into the before update event.
In the code behind the calendar form's button,
call Forms!<<mainfor m>>!<<textbox>> _AfterUpdate.
You need to change that event's definition to public.
and the <<mainform>>, <<textbox>metav ariables to the real names.

An Access Validation Rule is a Property, not an event. You can write
validation for the BeforeUpdate event of a Form, or the AfterUpdate event of
many Controls, if you want to performs some complex validation.
I'll have to experiment with code in the
beforeupdate event to make sure that the
START date entered by my calender form
button is <= 2000, and not greater that
the END date.
You press, or click, a Button Control, and you execute code or macros, but
values are going to come from some other source.
And need to also excite the textbox
using code, because that does not
take place now, and the entry goes
unnoticed.
"Excite" a text box? Do you perhaps mean "highlight" the textbox, for
example, by changing the backcolor or the text color? If you'll clarify, I
am sure someone can assist.

Hi,
I have a scenario where I am dynamically adding a control from code when a
controls event is fired. The problem I have is that when the newly created
control is clicked, the click event does not fire. I have written a simple
demonstration that reproduces the problem and would appreciate if someone
could give me a hint on how this should be done
Many thanks

Hi,
This is what I am doing, please comment if this is the correct way.
I need to add controls to a form dynamically.
Within the Page_Load event (is not Postback) I run a routine to create the
controls, and populate the dropdowns etc,
I use addhandler to define delegates to capture events raised by the
controls.
I store these controls in a hashtable.
