Error message: "Object Required"

[Guest_imported]

I have a command button_1 hidden by a shape
that is located ontop of it.
I have another Command button_2 that should expose the first command button_1 by making the shape invisible: (shape.visible = false )
When I use this command Button_2 an error message
pops up: "Object Required" - why?

You have to reference the form that the shape is on. Try this...

Me.shape.visible = false
