Hello,

I would like to do the following:

I have a check box on a form. Once I check on this check box, I want text and combo boxes to be created dynamically in the form. So the action of checking on the check box would mean: create text and combo boxes. Is this possible to do with Access, and if so how would I do it??

Thank you very much

I would think it would be easier to already have them in the form (hidden) and then use the checkbox to set their visible = True or False properties as needed.

Wiz47 is right.

Access forms will only create controls in design mode, and have a shelf life of around 700 controls. So once the control is created 700 times, the form will crash.
