Update current form counter with closing form's changes

Hello all -

I'm at wits end with trying to find in answer to this
question......if it even exists. I have form A, which
calls form B but keeps form A open in the background.
When I'm through with making additions and updates to form
B data and exit, I need to update counter fields on form A
in case I made additions. What event exists that I can
call so I can implement my procedure that does my
necessary updating. I don't want to call FormA.show from
a new instantiation because it'll erase any changes that
were made on that form as well. I just want to find the
form event that is called when I close form B. I tried
GotFocus but that didn't work.

Any help is HUGELY appreciated at this point.

Much thanks-
Mark

Mark,

The Closing event of FormB is probably the right place for this. Just make
sure to verify that FormA is still loaded before allowing the updating code
to run.

HTH,
Nicole
