This is my first try with public variables and there are some problems, I'd like your help with.
Idea : I'd like to set a public boolean variable which can be read in various forms. My idea is to tie the visible aspect of various buttons to this value.
After reading the forum here, I came to understand this public value must be written in a separate module.
Here is what has been done so far :
Module named "GenVar"
Option compare database
Option Explicit
Public Bvisbtn as Boolean
Module named "MSetvis"
Public sub Setvis (Bvalue as Boolean)
Bvisbtn = Bvalue
End Sub
In one form I use a button which, on click, call the above sub like this : Msetvis (true), and another one Msetvis (false)
To test if the public value is properly modified, I made a dummy button on the same form and added on opening the form the following line :
Me.Btn_test.visible = Bvisbtn
This does not work. What I would like help with is how to test if this value is indeed properly set as required.
