update when record changes

[alex]

Using Access '03...

With the help of this group, I have a form with a number of checkboxes
that hide/unhide columns on a subform.

Arvin just guided me to store the value of these checkboxes in a table
(which I've done). This appears to be working well, but the code
behind my checkboxes is not reevaluating upon a record change.

Let's see if I can't confuse anyone...

A user opens the form and sees one record, a subform (in datasheet
view), and about 10 checkboxes that will hide/unhide a number of
columns in the subform. As the user cycles through the records, the
value of each individual checkbox changes (again, the values are
stored in a table associated with each record).

The problem, however, is that my checkbox code is not firing as the
records cycle. When the user cycles through each record, I need the
form to look and see what value is contained in each checkbox and show/
not show the appropriate column...everytime the form loads or record
changes. I think I've done something similar in the past...I'm
checking some old code to see. Any help would be appreciated.

You use the Form Current event for that. Call whatever procedure evaluates
the checkboxes and shows/hides the columns.

Thanks for your help...
I have about 10 procedures; all tied to the After Update event of each
checkbox.
Do I copy all 10 and place them in the On Current Event of the form?

You don't need to copy any code, just call each check box's After Update
event from the Form Current Event
