Echo On: "NO" (1 Viewer)

[tanski811]

Where and how do I write in this code that is a command button to open up a form to set the Echo off. I know how to do it in a marco but not how to write it in VB code.

Below is the VB code for my "open form" button...

Private Sub LookUpOpenFormButton_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_LookUpOpenFormButton_Click

Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String

stDocName = "frm_Account"

stLinkCriteria = "[ID]=" & Me![LookUpAccount]
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
DoCmd.Close acForm, "Switchboard Lookup"
Exit_LookUpOpenFormButton_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_LookUpOpenFormButton_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_LookUpOpenFormButton_Click

End Sub

Echo False
' Screen writes suspended
Echo True
' Screen writes re-enabled

Ive found that every time I have a line of code 'Docmd.echo false' i ALWAYS get an error.

So I left it out.

When code stops running echo seems toreturn to normal. Just some observations ive made, i dont know the ins-and-outs of echo very well.

Not sure how much difference it makes, but I'm talking about Application.Echo, not DoCmd.Echo.
