Exactly what are you trying to accomplish? You can't insert data using a form's AfterUpdate event; you'll create an endless loop and never be able to move to another record! And the only way to even close the form is to error out!

You can use the AfterUpdate event of a control on a form, such as a textbox. You'd use something like this:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Private Sub YourControl_AfterUpdate()
  2.  Me.YourControl = Me.YourControl & " Hi!"
  3. End Sub
