PRB: No OnReposition Property in Microsoft Access

Article ID: Q117171
Creation Date: 22-JUN-1994
Revision Date: 19-SEP-1996

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Access version 2.0

SYMPTOMS

Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.

The Microsoft Access version 2.0 "User's Guide" states on page 384, in the "Tip" section, in part, that:

   To update the list while you're using the form, use the Requery action
   in a macro you've attached to the OnReposition property of the form or
   the OnEnter property of the control.

This tip is incorrect in that there is no OnReposition property in Microsoft Access.

RESOLUTION

Replace the word "OnReposition" with the word "OnCurrent." The tip should read, in part:

   To update the list while you're using the form, use the Requery action
   in a macro you've attached to the OnCurrent property of the form or the
   OnEnter property of the control.

STATUS

This behavior does not occur in Microsoft Access for Windows 95 version 7.0.
