Make checkbox invisible in continuous forms individually

M

Mesa

I looked all over for this but was unable to find the answer. Im
trying to make a checkbox on a continuous form visible if there is a
value in another textbox per record. On continuous form view it
changes the checkbox visibility of all records, otherwise my coding
works fine in single form.

You cannot conditionally hide/show controls on a continuous form.

The nearest you can do is to use a text box so you can apply conditional
formatting. This will allow you to use white-on-white or some such
arrangement that makes the box appear to disappear.

For details on how to make a text box that looks like that, see:

If you intend the user to be able to click the check box, you will need to
place a real text box on the form behind the text box, and use the GotFocus
event of the text box to SetFocus to the check box.
