Events allow the designer to use Stored Procedures and Java, within jar files, to extend the capabilities of Form DesignEHR. Some examples include copying data forward from a previous record. Hiding fields and making fields read only based on conditions set.

1. OnChange - the user changes a value and exits the field.  Example: Gender changed from M to F, OnChange triggered on exit of field, show or hide other fields.
2. OnScroll - the record in focus has changed just by selecting a new one.  Example: A label to display a calculated age based on birth date.  This is recalculated as each record is selected.
3. OnInsert - triggered when the form transitions to adding a new record.  Example: Useful for pre-populating fields when adding new records.
4. OnDelete - triggered when a record is deleted.  Example: Take some action on child records when a parent record is deleted.
5. OnSave - triggered when the user chooses to Save the record, or it is implicitly saved.  Example: Update another table based on data saved in this record.
