COMMAND BUTTON FOCUS 1

[Kevsim]

I have a form with a command button (command button 1), when this button is pressed, A text box , a label and another command button (command button 2) appear. After text is inserted into the text box, command button 2 is pressed to submit the data. If the data is not accepted I want the text box, label and command button, not to be visible. This works OK in after update of command button 2, except an error message appears stating “You can’t hide a control that has the focus”. I would appreciate advice as to how I can accomplish the above.

Just move the focus to an object that will always be visible before enacting your code. Life's a journey enjoy the ride...

I don't know what your code is so I can't code what you need? So what I am referring to is this. I assume your command button 1 is always available? So what you need to do in your afterupdate of Command button 2 *again I assume* this is where you are running the code from the very first line of code would be Me("whatever command button 1 is&quot.setfocus then the rest of your code. Life's a journey enjoy the ride...
