Hide Form Control Following DblClick Event

365 100+

Hello,

I have another problem to which i cannot figure out a resolution,
I have a listbox on a form, on double click event of a row in the listbox i want to run some code, update tables etc
then i want to run another procedure that updates the "Main" listbox to show the change made in the other, and i want to hide the original listbox, make sense?

well, i get the error "cannot hide control that has the focus", i understand the error but would like to "do it anyways", i have tried to run other things inbetween and set the focus to something else but nothing works.

any one got any ideas?

False alarm, i found my answer in the very Next Thread

@missinglinq
i was being non-specific in my actions and used

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

Me.SetFocus

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

Me.AnyControl.SetFocus

the latter works
