    Combo Box On Click Event does not fire


    Just putting some development "scaffolding" together that uses a popup form to display a dropdown of user choices. I've apparently omitted something crucial. The form only has one combo box control and the form's open event puts the focus on the combo and initiates a dropdown. When I click on any one of the displayed choices the On Click event for the combo does not fire. See below for what I have so far................... What might I be missing?

    If I understand what you are trying to do correctly, I would probably use the AfterUpdate event of the combo.

    Are you sure you have [Event Procedure] in the event property?

    I added an AfterUpdate event with the same code you see for OnClick and it does not fire either.

    I guess you're RIGHT! I had to rebuild from scratch. Both events fired as expected.
    Thanks,
    Bill
