hi
i have a form where i have place the main data on the "Detail" portion. i wish to have a command button on my detail page and when i click on it, the action is to open the page footer where it consists some data which means that the data will only display when the button is clicked.
i have try by making the data visible = false first and in the event of on click event of the command button, i wrote :
me.lblData.visible = true,
however it does not work.
how can i do that??
pls advice

try on form load
Me.FormFooter.Visible = False
and on button click
Me.FormFooter.Visible = true
Is this what you are looking for?

hi sal,
this is exactly what i wanted. can i ask u one more question?
how can i adjust the form footer. becoz if i have a large amount of data on the form footer then my form size will appear a large blank space on the bottom unless the user click on the command button.
so what i want is that can the form resize itself, which means that when the form load, it will appear in the size where the form footer is hidden (no blank space shown). only after the user click on the command button the form will then resize to the approiate size.
i hope this dont confuse you.
pls advice

How about if you put this statement after you make the form footer and label visible?
Me.FormFooter.Height = Me.lblData.Height
