Access 2000 Update a List using sep Form

I want to reapply a filter to a continuous forms list after adding, editing or deleting a record from a separate update form.

Is there a standard method by which to do this?

Right now I created a public variable in a module and use it as a flag to signal from the update form to the continuous forms list that a refresh to required.

I use an “On Focus” event procedure to read the flag and reapply the filter. This doesn’t seem to work properly.

Am I stupid or what? Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Many thanks, Tad Sendzimir
