Greetings. Before I begin, I have been stuck on this problem for about a
5 days, now. I have tried and just seem to be not getting anywhere. I
know that the explanation is lengthy, but I am a relative newcomer to
Access and need to be methodical until it become more familiar. Thanks
in advance for your help.
I have a form with a subform that has a subform.
form: frmEvents
subform: sfrmTrialInfo (controlname = [subfrmTI])
subform in the subform: sfrmTrialClass (controlname = [subfrmTCI])
The table structure is:
tblEvents
tblTrials (multiple trials for every Event)
tblTrialClass (multiple classes for every Trial)
I get to the frmEvents form from a form with unbound controls to setup
the criteria for the display. That form is frmDataEntry.
In frmDataEntry, I have a Combobox to select an Event for display and
two command buttons; one to open the selected event in "browse" mode to
view the Event-Trials-Classes and another to open a blank frmEvents to
create a new Event-Trials-Classes
In frmEvents there is a command button that is enabled while in "Browse"
mode that will cause frmEvents to goto a New Record and should look like
the "New" button was pressed from frmDataEntry.
Problem: The two "NEW RECORD" situations don't look the same.
1. In the "NEW RECORD" from frmDataEntry, [subfrmTI] has ENABLED=FALSE
so it's label is shaded (that's what I want), but [subfrmTCI] has
ENABLED=FALSE but it's label is not shaded. Why? How can I fix this?
2. In the "NEW RECORD" from frmEvents, [subfrmTCI] has ENABLED=FALSE and
it's controls are not displayed (even though they are displayed in the
other "NEW RECORD' scenario)? WHY? How can I fix this?
I can send a word document with the screen shots. That would make the
explanation much shorter.
Here's some of the subroutines that are behind the forms:

Can you help me get the two "NEW RECORD" scenarios to look the same?
