In creating the variety of fields on my form, am using the wide variety of methods available to set those fields. I basically collect some information, then have a 'calculate' button to build some label values to display the amounts. I'm finding I have to click Calculate numerous times to get everything set.
I don't understand the sequence of events, not within a specific control, but across the page itself. Specifically between setting default values on the Data tab, verses custom code (Dlookup) on a control, and OnClick and Before show custom code events on the button.
Do all the 'Data tab' set fields get executed first, followed by the Events tab code?
So if fields 1 and 3 are set through Data, and field 2 has an Event (BefShow). can I not set field3 from the results of field2?
Is there a doc describing the sequence of data setting options? Hope this makes sense, I am a rookie.
Thanks,
Scott
