    Disabling fields


    I have a form with fields that gray out or disable depending on selections. If you make selections that result in disabled fields and then save/close it, how do you ensure the fields remain grayed out/disabled when you reopen it?

    Thanks!

    You could put the code that enables/disables in the forms On Current event as well.
    If this helped, please click the star at the bottom left of this posting and add to my reputation . Many thanks.
