MS-Access Missing Event When Leaving Text Box - events

I have a textbox that is used to filter a Listbox. There is a command button next to the text box. I enter some filter data in the text box and then move the mouse to the command button and click. All of the appropriate events in the text box fire but the command button's click event does not.
I am running Access 2013 on a Windows 8 virtual machine (Parallels on the Mac).
Is this normal activity?
Below is an event trace from the following activity:
enter the characters "farm" in the text box then click on the search command button.
Notice - no events fire for command button.
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_Enter
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_GotFocus
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_KeyDown
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_KeyPress
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_Change
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_KeyUp
mIndustryFind==> tbxSearchText_KeyDown

Comment out the existing click event procedure in the form's code module. Then with the form in Design View, open the command button's property sheet and click the ellipsis for the On Click event to create a new procedure stub in the form's module. Add a simple statement to that stub.
MsgBox "button clicked"
If that new procedure works, replace its body with your original code.
The reason for this suggestion is that I've found Access occasionally "loses track" of event procedures --- although they exist in the module, they are not recognized at run time. The steps I described have always worked to correct those problems.
However, although your situation sounds somewhat similar, I'm not at all convinced this is the explanation. It may be a long shot, but shouldn't cost you much to rule it out.

separate action for [OK] and [IGNORE] button

in Oracle Apex I have a page where I want to edit individual records. To do this, the user selects a data record and then clicks the [OK] or [IGNORE] button. Here I have defined that the page is to be sent and then an update and insert takes place under PROCESSING. But he works "logically" one after the other. When I click [OK] an insert and update should take place and when I select [IGNORE] only an update without insert in a table should take place. Whats the best way to do this?
Process lets you create a Server-side condition which - additionally - offers you to choose which button it is related to.
Therefore, create two processes, each for its own button. Doing so, process will fire only when its button is pressed.
There are multiple options:
Create one page process per button and put a server side condition on each process (server side condition = When Button Pressed). Same answer as Littlefoot.
Create a single page process and in your source you manage the different cases. On submit, the value of the REQUEST is the name of your button. So your page process code could be
IF :REQUEST = 'OK' THEN
--code to execute when OK is pressed
ELSIF :REQUEST = 'IGNORE' THEN
--code to execute when OK is pressed
END IF;
You'd want to put a serverside condition on this of type "Request is contained in value" with a value of "OK;IGNORE". This will yield true if button OK or button IGNORE is pressed.

How to programmatically call the DialogPage Cancel Button event

Using Fast Report VCL component.
In the Report I would automatically cancel the report generation based on certain criteria.
I am using Fast Report DialogPage and put in 2 button (Btn OK and Btn Cancel)
The report is working correctly when the user presses the Ok Event (to Generate) and Btn Cancel (To cancel the report generation.)
What I would like to achieve is to call the Cancel Button Programmatically via from the Script to cancel the Report Generation.
How to do this?
IF <condition> then
BtnCancel.click();
Try
if <condition> then
DialogPage1.ModalResult := mrCancel;

VSTO: How do I cast a mailitem as a form?

If I have an Outlook.MailItem how can I get the Location, Width and Height of this?
Also I need to "disable" the entire Outlook.MailItem form - how do I do this?
I want to show a centered "modal" dialog (just a Windows.Forms.Form) over this MailItem without it actually being modal.
Thanks
Update (more explaining)...
When a user clicks "Send" on a mail, I want to check it for large files before sending and if the file size are too big, then I want to show a "Files are too big, do you want to zip them" dialog. The dialog must be centered to the mail form and disable the mail form (like a dialog would) without freezing outlook.
There is no need to disable the default form in Outlook.
For example, the Open event of the MailItem class which is fired when an instance of the parent object is being opened in an Inspector. The Cancel parameter passed to the event handler allows to abort the default action. If the event procedure sets this argument to True, the open operation is not completed and the inspector is not displayed.
When this event occurs, the Inspector object is initialized but not yet displayed. The Open event differs from the Read event in that Read occurs whenever the user selects the item in a view that supports in-cell editing as well as when the item is being opened in an inspector.
Also you may consider using Outlook form region. The Replacement-all layout allows to override the whole inspector window. See Creating Outlook Form Regions for more information.
Why do you need to do anything with the form? Process the Application.ItemSend event, display the prompt if necessary, and cancel the submission process if you need to.

How to access the cancel button event in jQGrid Edit dialog box

Is there an event associated with the cancel button of various jQGrid dialog boxes like ADD, Edit and Delete ? For my edit dialog box, I need to do some processing when the user clicks the cancel button.
please help
thanks
Probably it could be enough to use onClose callback for form editing (see the documentation here and here).
If you would fund out that the callback are called not allays (I don't tested it in the current version of jqGrid) then you can choose another way. If you really need to process all closing of all dialogs you can consider to overwrite or to subclass $.jgrid.closeModal or $.jgrid.hideModal functions. See the demo from the answer (compare the code with original one here).

Jqgrid Edit Form Change Event of Select doesnt fire when scrolling thorugh records

I have been following this example, http://www.ok-soft-gmbh.com/jqGrid/DependendSelects2.htm, as it is just what I need. I have got it working but it doesnt work when scrolling through records. If you bring up the form and scroll from a UK record to a US record, the list doesnt change. The onChange event only fires when the user selects from the select drop down.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks for your help.

My old demo uses 'change' event handler defined in the dataEvents property of the editoptions. In the dataEvents array one can define other event handlers.
You need just bind keyup to the column exactly like it's described in the answer. In the body of the event handler you can do the same actions as in the body of the 'change' event handler (you can place the code in a function and call it from the both handlers). In the way you should be able to solve the problem.
UPDATED: I updated the old answer and another one which was origin for the demo which you used. The new demo support the navigation buttons (the buttons to edit the 'next' or the 'previous' row) in the editing form.
