that is not what I needed to know,
here is what I want to do:
using MS Access navigation buttons, the user selects to enter a new record, after the user enters the data into the form they can click on one of the navigation buttons to put the data into the database. I'm cancelling MS Access insertion routine and writing my own.
*** But I need to know which navigation button (first, previous, last) was pressed so that, after my insertion routine, I can take the user to where they wanted to go****
thanks "so many events, so little time"
