Passing TextBox Name gives error 424 Object required

[Middlemarch]

The code is in a Pop-up form on top of frmShowRecord and is is giving Object required error

Form_frmShowRecord.TurnOrange (Form_frmShowRecord!txtATime)

And in frmShowRecord where txtATime is the name of the textbox control

Public Sub TurnOrange(t As TextBox)
    Stop
End Sub

How do I pass the textbox to the subroutine

Wouldn't it just be

Call turnOrange Forms!MyOpenForm!txtMyTextbox

?

basically, you have to tell the code *which* textbox (on which form) when you call it. If the textbox is on the form you're calling the subroutine from, you could use Call turnOrange me!txtMyTextBox

Just remove the parentheses:

Form_frmShowRecord.TurnOrange Form_frmShowRecord!txtATime

You don't need them if you're just calling the Sub. It is asking you for an object because when you use the parentheses, you're supposed to be making an assignation like this:

Set SomeObjectVariable = Form_frmShowRecord.TurnOrange(Form_frmShowRecord!txtATime)

By the way, when using Form_ for your references, favor not using the bang ! and use dot . instead, that way you'll get nice intellisense for that form. Less guessing = less pain.

The Form calling the subroutine is not the Form the textbox is in.
But thanks for the reply as adding "Call" to the instruction worked !
