I have this generel sub to flashing of a control on a form ,,, flash in a specific color: Sub FlashCtrl(OnOff As Boolean, frm As Form, Ctl As Control, Optional flashColor As Long) If OnOff = False Then frm.TimerInterval = 0 frm.Controls(Ctl.Name).Visible = False Else...

Woops, you just right ! :o

OK, I got it working - the right combinatio of Activated and Locked can do the job

OK, I found out it should have Activated=true BUT I DON'T want the user to be able to do something in the field - only performing that dbl-click nothing more ! How to ?

What could be wrong if a dbl click wont work on a textbox ? If works nicely on the textbox just beside the problematic one ! When I say "wont work" I mean it never comes to the break point I inserted in the dbl click event procedure for that textbox :banghead:

> Isladogs Thx ! Ok, I have a dbl-click event procedure on the FORM - that's why (I don't think it's a built in functionality) but I thought I then could dbl click whereever I want on the form but that's wrong .

The double click ONLY works if I double click on the record selector ! Why ?

The text I want to be seen in the status bar/line - in this case: DoubleClick on the record you want to copy participants from OR press ENTER to cancel ! When you want to remove the text in the status bar/line you just call the sub with nothing or "" I think I have the psoudo code now: 1) A...

As I write in my posting I use my own simplified MsgBod called MeldJaNej(...) Here is the code for the status line: Sub ksStatusBar(Optional Msg As Variant) Dim Temp As Variant ' if the Msg variable is omitted or is empty, return the control of the status bar to Access If...

OK, yeah ... af cause too few infos ! The social events are added through a continues subform, where the "source record" can be seen (or scrolled to be seen) and the participants are listed in a Subform to the SocialEvent Subform I have now found out how to present the text in the status line...

The situation is a user is adding a record for an social event - when finished he shall add participants to that event. He can enter the participantsby entering all the values hemself (implemented !) OR he can click a butten to copy the participantsfrom another social event (not implementes...

THX for all the code and your time ! I'll now try to see if I can implement it in my form:D

Because it's a tree-like structure of text boxes showing a person and his ancestors.

This is ecactly my MouseDown method, I think ! I'll right away tr it out ! THX !!!!!!!!!!

The right-click must be "wired" to the specific textbox because each of the textboxes had the PersonID in the Tag field ... and it's not a fluide process if you have to click a button too

The problem in Access is you ONLY can choose ONE event method when you click the MouseDown event combobox - in C# you can choose all of you methods :banghead:

I have a form with 15-20 textboxes showing the name of a person. I want to be able to RIGHT-click on one of them to show more detailed infos of the person behind the name. The way I show the details is working nicely BUT it don't look right to have the EXACT same code for each of the...

I too was sure I was overlooking some setting somewhere ... but where !:mad: The lesson learned here is: Be aware of what is selected BEFORE doing any change in settings ! And I think it's completely stupid when I click a CONTROLin a subform that it "stops halfway" selecting the SUBFORM...

I GOT IT ! Somehow I got a setting LOCKED ! Under properties DATA-tab with focus on the SUBFORM I have got the setting LOCKED = Yes and it should be set to NO ! :banghead:

Yeah, I think I'll have to do that ! ... and it's very frustrating NOT to find out why :banghead::confused::banghead::eek:
