can't make a button visible value to false

[associates]

Hi again,

looks like it hasn't been my day.

I have another issue again and am confused why it doesn't work. I was trying again to set a button visible to false on another form.

Here is the code.
Private Sub CM_PDFConverterOFF_Click()
Forms!Subject_Summary_Selection!CM_Convert2PDFSelection.Visible = False

Forms!Outline_Selection!CM_Convert2PDFSelection.Visible = False
Forms!Outline_Selection!CM_Convert2PDFALL.Visible = False

Me.CM_PDFConverterON.Visible = True
Me.CM_PDFConverterON.SetFocus
Me.CM_PDFConverterOFF.Visible = False
End Sub

The error message that i got is as follows

Error No. 2450, can't find the form "Subject_Summary_Selection".

I have checked the spelling and it's right but still Access doesn't like it.

Have i done anything wrong here?

Thank you in advance

is the form "Subject_Summary_Selection". open?

Dennisk,

Yes, it works now. it didn't work because the form was closed. I suppose i have to put the code in the if condition to check whether the form is open or not.

Thank you for your help
