False (0)
You can set this property by using the command button's property sheet, a macro, or Visual Basic.
Remarks
The initial repeat of the event procedure or macro occurs 0.5 second after it first runs. Subsequent repeats occur either 0.25 second apart or the duration of the event procedure or macro, whichever is longer.
If the code attached to the command button causes the current record to change, the AutoRepeat property has no effect.
If the code attached to the command button causes changes to another control on a form, use the DoEvents function to ensure proper screen updating.
