I have a form with a close button with the following code.

Private Sub btnCCRClose_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_btnCCRClose_Click

Dim ctl As Control

For Each ctl In Me.Detail.Controls
If ctl.Tag = "Required" Then
If Trim(ctl & "") = "" Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox ctl.Name & " is a Required Entry.", vbCritical, "REQUIRED
ENTRY"
ctl.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Next ctl

DoCmd.Close

Exit_btnCCRClose_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_btnCCRClose_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_btnCCRClose_Click

End Sub

It worked fine on Friday when I added the code, but now, I’m getting an
error “Object doesn’t support this property or methodâ€.

I originally had the code in the BEFORE UPDATE event of the form. When I
opened it and tried to close it leaving blank, only one “Required Entryâ€
error would pop up and then it would close anyways, without saving the record.

Can someone please help me or tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks.
 
the before update event has a (Cancel as Integer) param. The cmd button
does not. Without looking at your code, I would guess part of the problem
is the Cancel= True line. Remark it out and see.
