BeforeInsert, AfterInsert Events — Event Procedures Example
This example shows how you can use a BeforeInsert event procedure to verify that the user wants to create a new record, and an AfterInsert event procedure to requery the record source for the Employees form after a record has been added.
To try the example, add the following event procedure to a form named Employees that is based on a table or query. Switch to form Datasheet view and try to insert a record.
Private Sub Form_BeforeInsert(Cancel As Integer)
If MsgBox("Insert new record here?", _
vbOKCancel) = vbCancel Then
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Form_AfterInsert()
Forms!Employees.Requery
End Sub
