field value changes, but no events trigger

I have a bound field on a form whose value is being changed by a function in
another pop-up form. The problem is, no events (on change, after update)
trigger when the value is modified. The forms "on dirty" event triggers, but
if I break on that event, the value of the field is still the old value
according to the debugger, even though the new value displays on the form.
Any ideas why this might be happening? (It's an Access 2000 .adp database)

Thanks.
 
Basically, form events are not triggered when controls (e.g., bound fields)
are updated through code. They only trigger when they're updated through
manual data entry into the field on the screen.

You're going to have write code in your pop-up to do whatever subsequent
processing you might have otherwise done in the events.
 
Thanks for the explanation.
