    With that many controls, I'd probably loop the controls and use the tag property to determine which to hide/show.

    How would i go about that - I am very new to Access and each of my fields is linked to the same table and by record in my form.

    Can you tell me in a few steps how and where I would write the code?

    Please and thank you.
