How can I make an array of command buttons (or toggle buttons) on a form and
have a text box on the same form display the index of the button clicked? This
works very well in VB6, but I can't duplicate the action in Access.

Create an option group.
Put toggle buttons in the group.
Then examine the Value of the group to see which one is depressed.
(It will match the OptionValue property of the button in the group.)
Another alternative might be to use a tab control, with the Style set to
Buttons.

Thanks for your help.
Option group worked perfectly. I don't know how many times I had tried to make
an option group before, but each time I had tried to make the toggle buttons be
an array ( Toggle1(0), Toggle1(1) etc.). I had defined the array in the form
module, but apparently not correctly, then set Text1 = Index and Text1=
OptionValue. No luck. I had been to your web site earlier today, but couldn't
find what I was looking for.

Hi, I want to put a bmp of a toggle switch leaning
to the left, the off position. With a painter prgm,
flip the left toggle , lean right, for ON or Start
position. How do I do this?
With VB 6 , ot the left are 2 columns of clickable
icons, Pointer, PictureBox, Label, Textbox, etc
Which of these do I use to make an ON or ENABLE
sending data bits and a STOP, or Disable data bits.
thanks

Hi folks.
I have a form, frmHistory, which has 3 toggle buttons (1 of which is
tglName, which I will be using to demonstrate my problem). The buttons
are used to sort the form (explanations below). I have set the
button's "Triple State" value to Yes, and the default value to False.
Here is the macro that I used for tglName (I assigned the macro to the
button's On Click event):

Hi, is there any way I can implement toolstrip toggle button simular to the
MS Word alignment button?
if one toggle button already pressed down, if user click on the "pushed down
button", the other toggle button will push down and the "pushed down button"
will push up. I have trying to find groupID for toolstrip button, but seem
like they don't have it.
I hope anyone can help my question, thank you very much.

Hi all.
I'm coming from a VB6 background so this is just confusing me a little. I have a form where the user can select one of a number of years to search. The selection doesn't relate directly to any particular table or field in the database, but will be used in code later to build queries.
I have tried putting a bunch of radio/option buttons in a frame, and also tried putting a bunch of toggle buttons on the form, and run into the same...

Hi all.
I have a frame with some toggle buttons in it. All is working fine, except that the user can't tell which option is selected to begin with. How do I set one of the toggle buttons to the down position at design time? (All controls are unbound).
I have done some searching on TheScripts, and found a couple of cases where it was suggested to set the Down position, which is where I picked up the terminology. But couldn't seem to find...

Hiya People,
I've put two toggle buttons in a frame...so only one can be 'active' at any one time. When one is 'live' (option 1, say) I want the Form to show my Trade price values, when the other, my Retail prices.
Can someone please show me the syntax for this?
I've dug thru the help, but it doesn't appear to be very relevant for me.
My Form already has 'access' to the prices necessary thru my query...

Hi - Has anyone ever used toggle buttons to select items in a
listbox? I'd like to put about 24 toggle buttons on an unbound form
that select or deselect items in a multiple select listbox. I've come
across a way to set the listbox value to only 1 at a time, but need
multiple toggle buttons to be on their corresponding listbox item
values to be selected. Thanks!

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
