Controlling Visibility on a Continuous Subform

All,

First time user, I tried searching for related posts but none pertaining to my specific problem.

I have a form with a "Continuous" subform on it. The Continuous subform has a combo box with a list of selections. What I want is to have cretin entry fields on the continuous subform show up depending on the selection of the combo box. I can get this to work with the code below but it updates all the records of the continuous subform not just the active record.

combo box: After Update [Event Procedure]
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Private Sub Work_Description_AfterUpdate()
  2. If Me.Work_Description = 20 Then
  3. Me.[CycleNumber].Visible = True
  4. Me.Label43.Visible = True
  5. Else
  6. Me.[CycleNumber].Visible = False
  7. Me.Label43.Visible = False
  8. End If
  9. End Sub
Any Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated

Unfortunately for you that is how it's supposed to work. You are not changing the data but the design of the control, albeit a run-time change only.
I don't know of a way around this I'm afraid. With the data it knows to use the current record. With the design it only really makes sense to treat it globally.
