hide a text box in a continuous form

[Guest]

I have a form that i created that display each form as a row in a continous
form. What I need is to have one text field on one row not visible when a
check box is checked. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks!

Using Conditional Formatting, evalaute the state of the field bound to the
CheckBox to set the Background color of the TextBox to match that of the
Background color of the form. You might have to set the Disabled prop via CF
as well.

There is sample code showing one wat to accomplish this here:
