Has anyone ever done a conditonal locking / disabling of text box controls on a continuous form.

in other words ...
if duedate != "" then duedate.Enabled = False

or

if duedate != "" then duedate.Locked = True

You can use Conditonal Formatting to enable / disable controls. Choose Expression Is.
 
I know this sounds stupid; but how?

I only see formatting of controls options?

Its a bit awkward. Click on a control in design view and then look on the Format menu.
