make datetimepicker invisible if chkbox unchecked

[honeypot]

Hi all
on my windows form, amongst other things, i have a checkbox for 'reply required', so if a reply is required then the user chooses a date from the datetimepicker. if the checkbox is unchecked, the the datetimepicker becomes invisible. i got this working by using the following code:

If chkRep.Checked = False Then
Me.dtpRep.Visible = False

only thing is, its invisible all the time now! wot do i add to the code to make it work properly?
Thanx!

Try this in your checkbox click event

dtpRep.Visible = chkRep.Checked

If the checkbox is checked, the datetime picker is visible. If it's not checked, the datetime picker is not visible.

You can reverse the behavior by putting a "Not" in.

ive tried a few variations but none seem to work:

If chkRep.Checked = False Then
Me.dtpRep.Visible = False
ElseIf chkRep.Checked = True Then
Me.dtpRep.Visible = True
End If

and:

If chkRep.Checked = False Then
Me.dtpRep.Visible = False
Else : Me.dtpRep.Visible = True

the datetimepicker remains invisible on both occasions?
