I have a database that I need to change the properties of command buttons based on the input of a user. I have a main form that pops up when the database is open and asks the user to enter a password. Based on that password the user will have rights to other forms. What code do I need to write to change the properties of buttons on different forms from my main form? the code I use for the buttons on my main form are me.command1.enabled = true that works but if I try to change the properties for buttons on other forms
it will not let me. How can I do this? Thank You so much

The syntax is:

Forms!YourOtherFormName!YourCommandButtonName.Property=Value

Is that what you were looking for?
