problem with form controls set to visible = false - Access 2007

[Julie Aldridge]

I have a form with a couple of subforms. The textboxes on the subforms are
set to visible = false.

Sometimes when I close the database and re-open, the subform textbox
properties have been re-set back to visible = true.

This problem is very intermittent. Are there any conditions that would
automatically change the properties.

UPDATE: I now know that visible = false will automactically change the
properties to visible = true after I have opened the form in design view when
the control is visible.
Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening?

In that case set the controls to not visible in the onLoad of the form. That
way they will always be set to invisible when the form is opened.

Thank you for your help Maurice
