hiding a control

[vickiwells]

I have a combo box on a main form, which I'm using when I need to filter on the attached subform. It works, but it looks confusing in between searches. Is there a way to make the combo box diappear unless one of the filter buttons is clicked?

set the visable property to false after the
filter has been proformed.
then when the filter is needed again set it to true.
