Record protecting
Hi
I'm only a beginner here but I use some thing like this. In the OnCurrent [Event Procedure] set the txtDate field and as may others as you need to disabled if it meets criteria. 'example Private Sub Form_Current() If Me.txtDate.Value = True Then Me.txtDate.Enabled = False Me.Otherfields.Enabled=False Me.Otherfields.Enabled=False Else Me.txtDate.Enabled = True Me.Otherfields.Enabled=True Me.Otherfields.Enabled=True End If End Sub You could use either the Enabled or Locked Values for the fields.

Record protecting
Hey John thanks for your response.
I am using a continueous form as a subform and I would need it to disable these fields as the user navigates from record to record. So that way if they should come onto a record where the date is populated they would not be able to edit it. But if they come accross one where the date value is false, then they could..... ...ya know? "John" wrote: Hi I'm only a beginner here but I use some thing like this.

Hi Tim
The example provided does exactly that. Use locked instead of Disabled tho, its not greyed out. Regards John "TimT" wrote in message ... Hey John thanks for your response.

In design mode,
Access the properties of the subform and enter the details in the OnCurrent field, Event Procedure. Regards John "TimT" wrote in message ...
