Event Response

The code you include in an event procedure is executed when the event takes place. For example, the code you include in the Click event procedure of a command button is executed when the user clicks the command button.

You can programmatically cause Click Event, DblClick Event, MouseMove Event, and DragDrop Event events with the MOUSE Event command, or use the ERROR command to generate Error events and the KEYBOARD command to generate KeyPress events. You cannot programmatically cause any other events to occur, but you can call the procedure associated with the event. For example, the following statement causes the code in the Activate event of frmPhoneLog to be executed, but it doesn't activate the form:

frmPhoneLog.Activate

If you do want to activate the form, use the Show method of the form. Calling the Show method causes the form to be displayed and activated, at which point the code in the Activate event is also executed:

frmPhoneLog.Show
