Event Trigger

A condition that causes an event to fire.

Triggers can be based on conditions that are created:

• By user actions, such as saving and closing a form, changing a record, and so forth
• Apart from user actions, such as the passage of time or the result of a database calculation

Event triggers of the first type are typically created using the Event Handlers and Event Actions forms. Event triggers of the second type are typically created using the Event Triggers form.
