I want to hide columns in a subform datasheet based on a checkbox on the main form. The visible property does not work with datasheets. Can I do this with vba? I found the runcommand hidecolumn but don't know how to make it work.

Thanks,
vmon

You need to setfocus to the column (control) you want hidden and then hide it. Like this:

txtBoxToHide.SetFocus
DoCmd.RunCommand (acCmdHideColumns)
