Visible control 1

[JMM]

My form has a command button (to add a new record) and a combo box.<br>
<br>
What do I do to have the combo box remain invisible until the command button (to add a new record) is clicked?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>

Under the combo box properties change the Visible Property to &quot;No&quot;.<br>
<br>
Then on the OnClick property of the commandbutton type the following code:<br>
<br>
Me.Combobox.Visible = True<br>
<br>
Combobox = the name of your combobox

Rather than specifying invisible in the property box, you may want to put it in the Form's OnCurrent Event. That way each time go to a new record it will be invisible again. Alternately you could put the code in the AfterInsert event, so that it became invisible at that point.
