Hey,
I am using SetValue to change the DataEntry property of a form to
"YES". But It doesn't work. No error messages, but the property didn't
change.Followin g is the what I am writing
SetValue:
Item: [Forms]![SubHistory]![Form].DataEntry
Expression:Yes
Does anyone know what is wrong? Thanks.

Is SubHistory a subform?
If so, you will need to get at it through the main form, e.g.:
Forms!YourMainF orm!SubHistory. Form.DataEntry
If not, drop the .Form bit:
Forms!SubHistor y.DataEntry
If the record is dirty, you may need to save the record first.

Allen,
SubHistory is a subform and I try the one you suggested for subform,
and here is the error message I get when I run forms:
The object you referenced in the visual basic procedure as an OLE
object isn't an OLE object.
Do you have any idea of this? Thanks.

The message suggests that something has the wrong name.
You might open the main form in design view, right-click the subform, and
choose Properties? What is in its Name property? The Name of the subform
control may not be the same as the name of the form that is loaded into the
control (its SourceObject.)
What confuses me, though, is that you said you were using SetValue, so I
assume you are using a macro. Yet the error message refers to a visual basic
procedure. You may well have more than one problem here.

Sorry, I didn't explain it clearly. The forms!formname! controlname of
setvalue is for setting up value of a control. What I want here is
different.
when we chose a form property, we will see form/data/event/other/all,
and under "data" there is Record Source, Filter, ..., Allow Edit, ...,
what I want is after a user hit one button, the "Allow Edit" property
will be changed from "NO" to "YES."
Thanks.
Mindy
Okay, we are going to build this reference a step at a time.
1. Make sure this form is open.
2. Press Ctrl+G to open the Immediate window.
3. Enter:
? Forms![YourMainForm].Name
substituting the name of your main form in brackets.
When you press Enter, Access should show the name.
4. Once you have that working you can try to get the reference to the
subform. On a fresh line in the Immediate window, try:
? Forms![YourMainForm]![SubHistory].Form.Name
If that responds with SubHistory, the reference is correct.
If not, then the subform control is named something different.
5. Once that is working, try:
? Forms![YourMainForm]![SubHistory].Form.AllowEdit s
Access should respond with either True or False.
6. Once that is working, you can copy the expression (without the question
mark), and paste it into your macro below the SetValue action.
