I found the answer to this with a search. I'm using the format event of the
report's detail. This brings up another challenge. How do I make the check box shrink? -- www.Marzetti.com "JohnLute" wrote: How can I make a check box appear only if its source has a "Yes" value? Is this possible? THANKS! -- www.Marzetti.com

Why do you need it to shrink if you dont display it when its false
On the Format event of the detail section, you can write the code me.CheckBoxName.Visble = iif(me.CheckBoxName is null, False,me.CheckBoxName) -- I hope that helped Good luck "JohnLute" wrote: I found the answer to this with a search.

Thanks, Ofer! I need it to shrink so that it won't take up any report space.
I have several check boxes and each one takes up space that I want to be able to condense. The code you supplied seems to produce an error: RunTime Error 424 Object Required. This doesn't make sense to me. -- www.Marzetti.com "Ofer" wrote: Why do you need it to shrink if you dont display it when its false On the Format event of the detail section, you can write the code me.CheckBoxName.Visble = iif(me.CheckBoxName is null, False,me.CheckBoxName) -- I hope that helped Good luck "JohnLute" wrote: I found the answer to this with a search.

Have you changed the CheckBoxName to the name of the object in your report?

Tes. That's why the error is so puzzling. I've double checked and the naming
is in order. -- www.Marzetti.com "Ofer" wrote: Have you changed the CheckBoxName to the name of the object in your report? -- I hope that helped Good luck "JohnLute" wrote: Thanks, Ofer!

The check box doesn't have a can shrink property, but you can make it visible
false, and set the can shrink propert of the section whrere the check box is, to yes. About the error, can you post the code you have, and did you define it in the code section? -- I hope that helped Good luck "JohnLute" wrote: Tes. That's why the error is so puzzling.
