Form : Lock all controls in form

[dek]

Hi,

I have a field named 'Locked' (which is a check box) in my form that is bound to the master table.

The checkbox stores TRUE or FALSE in the table.

I would like to lock all control properties in the form and subform (except for the 'Locked' control) automatically when selecting the LOCKED control and on leaving the record.

A simple VBA solution using the event 'after update' would be appreciated.

Thanks

Only way I know is to address each control and set its Locked property. Like:
Me.controlname.Locked = Me.[Locked]

Place all these lines in a Sub that can be called from the AfterUpdate and the OnCurrent events.

Since the LOCKED control would be either True or False, why not set the default 'Locked' property on each control to me.[locked]? (or forms!formname.locked, whichever is correct...)

I think vt is partially right....but I believe the solution will involve looping through each control on the form after update and on current. Here's a link that gives a pretty good example: http://access.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0004.htm
