I am using a macro to prevent duplicate entries in a form. The macro uses MsgBox and CancelEvent. It is used in the Before Update event. When I enter a duplicate, I get my error message, then I get the default error message. I have learned that the CancelEvent is causing the default error message. I would like to suppress the default message, but, I cann't figure out how.
