    Order of events for database objects

    Applies To: Access 2016 Access 2013 Access 2010 Access 2007

    A single action, such as moving from one control on an object to another control, can trigger several different events, which occur in a particular sequence. Knowing when events occur and in what order they occur is important, because it can affect how and when your macros or event procedures run. For example, if there are two event procedures that are to be run in a certain order, you want to make sure that the events that they are associated with occur in that same order.

    In this article

    Order of events for controls on forms

    Order of events for records on forms

    Order of events for forms and subforms

    Order of events for keystrokes and mouse clicks

    Order of events for reports and report sections

    How to manually split a Access database in Microsoft Access
    For various reasons, you may decide to split the database into either a front-end application or a back-end application. The back-end database contains the tables and is stored on a file server. The front-end database that links to the back-end tables contains all the forms, the queries, the reports, the macros, and the modules. The front-end database is distributed to the workstations of the users. This article describes how to split the database manually instead of by using the Database Splitter utility.
