Hi John,

On Load only fires when the form is "loaded", e.g. when opening it for
the first time or when moving from record to record.  It does not fire
when the window is activated.

As Allen said, you can use On Activate but remember that will fire any
time that window is activated (e.g. if the user minimizes the front-most
one) so be sure to check if the other process is still running.

Kind regards,

Josh Fletcher
