I have a form that contains controls that are bound to an underlying table. I
want to update a summary table when the update of a displayed record is
complete. How can I tell when the update is complete, and can I tell what the
contents of the updated record are? Am I making this harder that it really is?

Thanks...

If you are taking about the time it takes to write the record to the table
and get it in memory, it should be immediate. There are occasionally what are
called "slow writes" in Access if you are writing tons of data. But you
should be able to see that data in the form as soon as you write it. You
cvould put in a save command just to be sure. Then just put a command button
on your from to run an update query as soon as you see the record is complete.
