Gday,

Hopefully there exists a simple solution to my dilema:
I have coded a function tied to the OnBeforeChange of a checkbox -
function myCheckbox::OnBeforeChange(eventObj){
//some code
if myCheckbox is checked
Alert ("unchecked")
else
Alert ("checked")
}

The problem is, when i requery the form using a drop downbox. the code above is executed. have i done something fundamentally wrong? Is there workaround for this.

Cheers

I'm not exactly sure how these functions behave but from my understanding onBeforeChange is going to fire A LOT more than onAfterChange(). If you switch your function to onAfterChange() it will probably only fire when you actually change the value of one of the fields.

Why is it an issue? If you have code there that shouldn't be executed when nothing changed in your drop-down, you could compare OldValue to NewValue. If they are equal, you can exit and bypass your code...
