Script doesnt work

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I am trying to hide a table on a button click. I wrote the following FormCalc code in the event Click of the button. But it doesnt work.

form1.purchaseOrder.main[*].presence = "hidden"

main is the table in the subform purchaseOrder.

(button and the table are in different subforms)

I opened a sample tutorial and pasted the same code. It works there, but not in my new form. I checked both the subform settings, they are same.

Am I missing something? Please advise.

form1.purchaseOrder.main.presence = "hidden"

Thanks Steve. I sent the form to your id.

Charli,

First, the form should be saved as a dynamic form to enable visibility changes to objects. Second, something got messed up with the table definition. I deleted your table and re-added a default table at the same position and the table now becomes hidden when you click the button.

I replied to your email with the updated form.

Thanks for your quick solution Steve. The problem is I am not saving the form as "Dynamic". Thank you very much.

Charli.
