Simple Example:

1) Create a CheckBox called 'chkTestCheckBox'
2) Create a text control called 'txtTestTextBox'
3) Place the following code in the 'After Update Event' of the CheckBox Control

If chkTestCheckBox = True Then

txtTestTextBox.Visible = False

Else

txtTestTextBox.Visible = True

End If

I tried this out and found you can also use this technique to make subforms visible/invisible. Very cool.
