Taking Advantage of Built-In, Form-Filtering Features
Access has several form-filtering features that are part of the user interface. You can opt to include these features in your application, omit them from your application entirely, or control their behavior. For your application to control their behavior, it needs to respond to the Filter event, which it does by detecting when a filter is placed on the data in the form. When it has detected a filter, the code in the Filter event executes.Sometimes you might want to alter the standard behavior of a filter command. You might want to display a special message to a user, for example, or take a specific action in your code. You might also want your application to respond to a Filter event because you want to alter the form's display before the filter is applied. For example, if a certain filter is in place, you might want to hide or disable certain fields. When the filter is removed, you could then return the form's appearance to normal.
Fortunately, Access not only lets you know that the Filter event occurred, but it also lets you know how the filter was invoked. Armed with this information, you can intercept and change the filtering behavior as needed.
When a user chooses Filter By Form or Advanced Filter/Sort, the FilterType parameter is filled with a value that indicates how the filter was invoked. If the user invokes the filter by selecting Filter By Form, the FilterType parameter equals the constant acFilterByForm; however, if she selects Advanced Filter/Sort, the FilterType parameter equals the constant acFilterAdvanced.
