Disable Button on Opening Form
Hello All,
When I open a form I disable one of the buttons like this, DoCmd.OpenForm "Ship List" Forms![Ship ListDT]!ctlButton.Enabled = False But it doesn't work when I open the form with acDialog option like this, DoCmd.OpenForm "Ship List", , , , , acDialog I know why, because the execution stops, when you open as a dialog form. What can I do to disable the button even when opened as a dialog? Thanks Abe

Hi Abe,
Do the disabling inside the "Ship List" form's On Open event instead.

And if you do not always want the form to open with the button disabled, as
Clifford suggested, you can set a value in the form open command's OpenArgs on Form1, then check OpenArgs on opening Form2, and set the button conditionally. -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!
