When you say "the 'Post' button is hidden for certain users and exposed for others" is that being done by the customisation or by the settings in Security Groups?

If it's a setting in security, then unhiding the button isn't enough to allow them to post. They will just get an error message from the view when they click the button.

If it's your customisation that's hiding the button for certain users then you would normally use OnRecordChanged for when the order Type field is changed as well as OnKeyChanged for when they initially open the order or scroll to another order etc. But I'm pretty sure a key change also triggers OnRecordChanged, so you could probably get away with just using OnRecordChanged.

In OnRecordChanged you could try something like:

Private Sub adsOEORDH_OnRecordChanged(ByVal eReason As AccpacCOMAPI.tagEventReason, ByVal pField As AccpacDataSrcCtl.IAccpacDSField, ByVal pMultipleFields As AccpacDataSrcCtl.IAccpacDSFields)

Select Case pField.Name
Case "ORDUNIQ", "TYPE"
    if adsOEORDH.Fields("TYPE").Value = 4 then

        mAppControls("APP_Save_Button").UIVisibleFlag = True

    else

        if (the post button should be hidden for this user) then

             mAppControls("APP_Save_Button").UIVisibleFlag = False

        End If

    End If

End Select

At least, that's what it wold look like in a regular VB screen. I don't know if it is different in a customisation screen.

This is in VB and the project includes a copy of the OE1100.ocx screen.  I use code to hide the POST button if the user is NOT on a user list built by the management.

I don't use the User Security.  

I think the OnRecordChanged will work but I'm not sure.  I'm going to try some of the suggestions from everyone.

Thanks to everyone for your help.

I wanted everyone to know that I was able to get it working.  The code examples really helped.
