Hi Frank,
on the last project I had to solve a similarly problem:
On before Update, the had to be some cross checking and depending on the result
the update had to be canceled or continued.
When the before Update starts, the db-Engine allready introduced the process of
updating the database.
This process must be stopped. And that cannot be done by simply exit out of the
sub.
in addition you have to tell the engine to cancel the update process.
this will be done by the command:
DoCmd.CancelEvent
insert this commend to the point where you want to break out of the process and
your problem should be solved !
Good luck
Michael
