Chip,

Try using On After Edit event in your enterable object. That should work 
without involving On Timer event. However, you will need to use Get edited text 
command to get the data.

HTH,

    I have a variable in which the user enters search criteria.
    They can paste from elsewhere also (as it is just text).

    everything works as I want when typing, but nothing happens when the
    user pastes, until they tab or click outside of the entry area.

    I would like to catch the paste action, and set a timer (which is what
    happen with typing), to trigger the search.

    Thanks
    Chip
