Toggle button

[matrixindicator]

I wonder myself, is it possible, I have a field on my form a simple check box, with said if the customer paid in advance, yes or no. It works fine, but in search for a even user friendly solution, I wonder if I could use a Toggle button to do the same, is this possible, because I can not link a controlsource to it.

Checkbox, option button, toggle button all work the same. What do you mean you can't link a control source to it? Did you check the Control Source option on the property sheet?

 

[matrixindicator]

for a toggle button I can not find a Control Source in the properties sheet

don't know what you mean. If I click my toggle button right the properties field appear. On toggle button for data I see Option value, Enabled and Loaded.

Is this an Access form? If so what version of Access are you using?

 

[matrixindicator]

Access 2000, certainly its an Access Form, nothing else.

I found something, the default toggle button in this version is not showing in his properties list a Cntrol Source, however, when I add a Toggle Button from the list of the advanced toolbox I found one with a Control Source.
Here the same problem as with Calendar Object, not automatically update of the field after change.

Sounds like you are working on someone's database that you did not develop. It sounds like those are active X controls, not native to Access.

 

[matrixindicator]

no, I started with a ms access from scratch. First I tried the default Toggle button, but here no Control Source.

Go through your steps. Did you use the toggle icon on the Toolbox toolbar? Make sure it's the Toolbox toolbar. After you drew it, did you look at the property sheet under the All tab?

 

[matrixindicator]

Yep, its the Toggle Button default from the Toolbox and I looked at the properties of this Toggle Button.
