You can either use the Active Objects (found under RE7 Objects in the project tree) or you can use the RE Code Wizard that creates event handlers for you. The RE Code Wizard is started by selecting it from the tool bar. It is a toolbar menu that appears by default. When you select it you get a list of objects some of which appear in the active objects list but others such as all the relationship objects (individual, organisation, education, etc), the custom front end methods, the on merge methods, etc. David There are two methods for handling events in VBA.

If you go through the RE Code Wizard there are many more options" What is the alternative, and what is the RE Code Wizard? Thanks, George Hi, can you elaborate on this point in #5:

What is the alternative, and what is the RE Code Wizard?

Thanks,
