Re: [MS_AccessPros] Form Navigation buttons question

 

This might not answer your question but did you add the same buttons and code on every form? If so, you should consider a single subform with the buttons to place in the header of each form. One set of buttons to maintain for all six forms. You can then reference Me.Parent.Name in your code to loop through and disable a button.

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Form Navigation buttons question

 

Hello all,

I am redesigning an old database and the forms are going to be changed to have some navigation buttons in the form header for more real estate. So I have 6 buttons with transparent properties. My question is that I would like to have the buttons be the same on every form so it is consistent. But if the form related to the button is loaded I want to have the button disabled.

So I put the following code in on load event.below. But I thought this should be in a module and called on every form. But I am stuck at that point. How do I call something like that?

Thank You

Jim Wagner

If CurrentProject.AllForms("frmReportsNew").IsLoaded = True Then
     Forms!frmReportsNew!cmdOpenrptReports.Enabled = False
   Else
       Forms!frmReportsNew!cmdOpenrptReports.Enabled = True
   End If
