[Guest]

Greetings...

Is it possible to utilize the If/Then statements with the Got/Lost Focus
commands?

Thanks,

Of course it is. What are you tryimg to do?

I have a calendar object on my form. Now the calendar always shows. I only
want the calendar to pop up if some selects that ubound object.

Try something like this in the bound control's Enter event:

Me.calendarcontrol.Visible = True

And in the other controls' Exit event:

Me.calendarcontrol.Visible = False

I get an error message that states an object with the focus cannot be
hidden. I tried it on the On Exit and On Lost Focus.

Me.calendarcontrol.Visible = True

Me.calendarcontrol.Visible = False

Oops, hit the wrong key.

Right, the Focus must be set somewhere else before making it
invisible. Maybe this will do:

Me.someothercontrol.SetFocus
Me.calendarcontrol.Visible = False
