    Toggle Visable Text Box

    Hi guys,

    A little help would be much appreciated! Access beginner!

    I have a form in access which is being designed with a view to creating a quiz and would like to have the option of showing or hiding the correct answer upon the click of a button.

    What I would like to know is if there is a way to use a toggle button to show or hide the correct answer (contained in a text box at the bottom of the form and linking to the same table that the form question are linked to)? I don't need to record any of the user answers, its merely going to be a revision tool.

    I've seen that it might be possible with a subform, but (and you'll need to exuse my ignorance here) I'm not sure how I would enable the subform to show the the correct answer field from the table.

    I've attached it so that you can understand what I'm asking for more clearly.

    Many Thanks to those who take pity on me!

    Assuming your Form is bound to the table/query and the answer is in the same table, there is no need to use a SubForm. I haven't looked at your db but a SingleView form can get to any field in the RecordSource.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
