Make subform visible or not in report?
I messed up. I need to make the comment either print or not print. As I
stated it is embedded as a subform in the report based off its own query. Any help would be appreciated.

You can use the Open event of the report to read the value in a control on
the form from which you launch the report and make the sub report control on the report visible or not. This example uses a check box where checking the box makes the comments visible.

Make subform visible or not in report?
Thanks however it is a little more complicated than that. The form has a
subform also. There is no Y/N field and the developers wont add one to the table. There is a print form button on the main form that does a ton of stuff that I could add in the code but need the Y/N to make it work? Maybe add another button or?

You don't need a Y/N field in your table. You just need a checkbox on the
form. That way when a user checks the checkbox, the comments will show. Step two: Slap the crap out of your lazy developer. -- Dave Hargis, Microsoft Access MVP "TKM" wrote: Thanks however it is a little more complicated than that. The form has a subform also.

Make subform visible or not in report?
I am tired as heck as I have 11 tickts I am trying to clear up. Dont mean to
sound so dumb about this but here is how it goes. The user selects the report he wants from a cbo. the report then opens and the user will print the report in front of her directly using the menu. Now all want is some way for the user to have an option to print or not print the comeent section on the report. Your past answers will they take care of this? I am very tired 12 hours and pushing it. Thanks for all your help! "Klatuu" wrote: You don't need a Y/N field in your table. You just need a checkbox on the form.
