Base - automatically running a macro on form opening

users
#1

Hi Egbert,

I need to fire up a macro automatically when I open a form, or when I move to the next record.
There is obviously no form event that allows me to do that. I have placed a simple macro, containing nothing but a message box into all relevant event slots, to see whether any one of them will fire. But none did. This appears to be strange to me, lacking such an important function.I am now using a button to run my macro, but this is unsatisfactory.
Does anyone have an idea how I can accomplish my task?Thanks for any help.Egbert
