Can I change the properties on a checkbox on a form. I have a form were I do not allow edits, but I need the checkbox to be edittable. I went to VB and tried ActiveCkBx.Edit=True and ActiveCkBx.Control.Edit = True but these are not recognized by any of my libraries. Please help.
 
Have a look at the .enabled and/or .locked properties of the checkbox control

I did but and the field is enabled and unlocked, especialy for the new fields. I stopped edits on the form but I am allowing users to create new records. I only want the checkbox on prior records open for update.

Take a look at the NewRecord property and Current event of the Form object.

Hope This Helps, PH.
