What event is sent after all fields are displayed?

[sadegiorgio]

Hi,

I've got a basic application which poles a directory for a file, then sends me an sms if the file is found. That all works fine, but I'm trying to start the process automatically as soon as all of the fields/lists have been populated and displayed; not before. In 'C' I'd use the 'PostMsg' function to ensure all events complete (including rendering of all fields) before acting. VBA doesn't seems to support this and I haven't been able to find a Form event that is sent after all of the fields/lists have been populated and then displayed!

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Regards,
Stephen.

Stephen, welcome to the Forum.
I am not sure what is the last Event.
Have you tried the AfterUpdate Eventwhen entering data?
Or if you are not entering any data try the After Final Render.

OBP, thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately I have tried these two events but neither are triggered as soon as you start the application/form and all of the fields have been displayed!

AfterUpdate is only triggered after you update the data and AfterFinalRender only appears to be triggered if you have a PivotChart not when you just have a normal form with fields and a datasheet or list!

Any further suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

The On Current event works each time the Form record is renewed.
The On load works when the Form is loaded for the first time.
