| End-User Interface Features > Bookmarks Dialog > Handling the GetBookmarkName Event |
The programmer can make bookmark names appear automatically, so the user won't have to enter a name for each bookmark manually.
This can be done in the GetBookmarkName event procedure. The GetBookmarkName event is fired before opening the Bookmarks dialog. Setting its BookmarkName argument to a string makes that string appear as the default bookmark name for the current record. In most cases, you will find it useful to set the argument to the value of a recordset field that allows the user to identify the record. For example:
| Example Title |
Copy Code
|
|---|---|
Private Sub TData1_GetBookmarkName(BookmarkName As String)
BookmarkName = TData1("LastName")
End Sub
