Double Click Event

You created Command Buttons for the Switchboard. The Command Button wizard offers a simple and elegant method for writing the Visual Basic procedure. However, a form in datasheet view, like your MovieTitlesList, does not display Command Buttons.

 

You DO see the name of the Movie. How do you want to go from the List view to the Form view? Click or Double Click? There are arguments for both options. What are people expecting? Hyperlinks use a single click to go to the next page. My Computer uses a double click to open another Window. Microsoft Access forms uses a single click to advance to the next field.

 

So, in this example, you will use a Double Click Event on the Movie control to open the MovieTitles form.
