xml hide form

[Jaye7]

does anyone know the xml code to hide a form, I want to add it to my xml that creates the ribbon.

I don't believe you use xml in Access to hide stuff. If you want your ribbon to execute commands, you use callbacks, so define the onAction property of a button. Then write a sub that will handle that call. Then, in that sub, hide the form.

Add an "onAction" property to the button in your ribbon xml . . .

<button id="[COLOR="Blue"]btnHideFormA[/COLOR]" label="Hide FormA" onAction="[COLOR="DarkRed"]RibbonButtonClick[/COLOR]" />

Then add that sub . . .

Sub [COLOR="DarkRed"]RibbonButtonClick[/COLOR](irc as IRibbonControl)
   Select Case ird.id
      Case "[COLOR="Blue"]btnHideFormA[/COLOR]"
         If CurrentProject.AllForms("FormA").IsLoaded Then Forms("FormA").Visible = False
      Case Else
         [COLOR="Green"]'...[/COLOR]
   End Select
End Sub

Hope this helps,
