Title: microsoft access anyone?
Post by: Stealth on February 07, 2005, 01:02:55 pm

i have a checkbox... and when i click that checkbox, i want it to enable a field ('enable' and 'unlock' the field) so that i can enter it in

for example

[ ] Program 1 *text box*
[ ] Program 2 *text box*

so that when i click the box next to Program 1, it enables the "text box" to be typed in... (it'll be greyed out before)

how do i do that?

Use the OnClick event of the checkbox to set the enabled property of the textbox

Me!txtEnabled.Enabled = False

or true as the case may be.
