I need to set some flags but not sure where

[tgbyhn10]

I'm doing some data validation in the forms beforeupdate event but the validation and course of action depend on what is going on so.

I need to know if the beforeupdate event was triggered because the form was closed or because someone uses the default database navigation control to move to a different record.

So how can I set a flag when someone closes the form or access events / properties of the default record selection control?

Thanks

Pete
