There are sometimes when we are required to use unbound forms to enter data in tables for example:<br />
<br />
(1) Companies details<br />
(2) Authorizing documents<br />
<br />
Now suppose we want to make sure that some of the controls are mandatory , then which event can we use?<br />
<br />
I have tried the before update it does not work &nbsp;nor before insert<br />
<br />

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.
