Remember Me.

Hello all,

Using Access '03...

I have several checkboxes on a form. These controls hide/unhide
columns on a subform.

If a user leaves (for e.g.,) 3 columns visible when he/she exits the
database, those columns remain visible when the user reenters the
database--this is a good thing.

Problem is, however; Access does not remember that a particular
checkbox was checked. I.e., the user enters the forms, sees the
columns that he/she left visible, but all the checkboxes are
empty...causing confusion.

Is there a line of code that will tell Access to hold the value of
checkbox upon exiting?

Thanks,
alex

You would need to store the value in the table to make it persistent.

Thanks Arvin for your help...must the value be stored in the same
table that the original form is tied to, or can the values be held in
a seperate table?
