Don't want to verify until I have finished!!

Have just started a new job 3 days ago in Data Processing via Access

Have been given a verification batch to do - which is proving to be an absolute nightmare. It attempts to verify after every number typed, and comes up with a checkform. Of course there are errors because I haven't completed that form yet!!

I have been on the phone to my employer several times today who guided me through some "form design properties" where I had to delete an entry related to "After Update" ... however this hasn't worked

I have 120 pages to input and verify within the next 14 hours which is not going to happen at this rate

So ... why is it verifying automatically ... instead when I click on "Verify"??

Please somebody?

Well, hard to tell exactly from your description, but you could check the
event properties of the control/field(s) involved and remove them (after
making a copy of the form). "After Update" fires when the record/field has
been written; "On Dirty" and "On Change" events occur whenever a character
is entered, which sounds like what's happening for you. The "Before Update"
event of the FORM is commonly used to check entries on a form before writing
them to a table.
