[AccessD] Syntax for setting button with event procedure

Hi Kath

Yes long time no talk - I do hope all is well

Sorry the strFormName does not have to be in quotes

Try - Forms(strSomeFormNameHere).[Closebutton].OnClick = "[Event Procedure]"

Works when I test it here

I too prefer the TAG method and use it almost everywhere - That way I simply
mark the controls relevant to an action with some text in the TAG - That way
don't have to test for control type

EG

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dim ctl As Control

If IsLoaded("frmSomeFormName") Then
    For Each ctl In Me.Controls
        If ctl.Tag = "CaneBeEnabled" Then
            ctl.Enabled = true
        End If
    Next
End If

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi Darren - long time no talk!

Unfortunately that throws an 'invalid qualifier' error......

Not to worry - I prefer Jim's idea of using the tag property to the way I 
was doing it so am off and running with that....

Mind you - it still would  be good to know what I had wrong with my syntax 
there....
