Make Visible

[MaleNurse325]

I have a check box on a form. I'd like, when it is selected to make a field ( A text box ) called [DanGo] visible on the report generated [rptConsignNote] only when the check box is checked. I hope that makes sense.

Probably need something in the reports open arg

Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
  Dim fieldToHide As String
  fieldToHide = Me.OpenArgs & ""
  If Not fieldToHide = "" Then
    Me.Controls(fieldToHide).Visible = False
  End If
End Sub

Then pass in what you want to hide

Public Sub testit()
  DoCmd.OpenReport "tblCars", acViewPreview, , , , "carID"
End Sub

You can do this in various ways including using open args when opening your report
For example on your form have code similar to this

Dim blnCheck As Boolean

blnCheck = Me.CheckboxName
DoCmd.OpenReport "ReportName",acViewPreview,,,,blnCheck

Then in your report use

Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
    Me.TextBoxName.Visible = Me.OpenArgs
End Sub
