MS Access - Check Box calls a text box

R

Rich

I am looking for a way so that when i choose a check box,
that it makes a text box appear under it so that i can add
text

Here is the scenario. i am in access and i have a form
where there is the option to choose
( * = check boxes )
* Add
* Delete
* Change
* Other <--- when you choose this option i want a text box
to appear under it so that you can type a value in to
define what "OTHER" is.

i think that this has a simple answer
PLEASE HELP

Position the text box on the form, and set its Visibility property to False
(No). In the check box's AfterUpdate event, put something like:

Me.MyTextBox.Visible = Me.MyCheckBox

(replace MyTextBox and MyCheckBox with whatever you've named your controls)
