opening and closing a popup form
hi all,
i have had a look for the answer to this, and I have tried several things but i think i am still doing something wrong. I would like to achieve the same affect as when you go to tools/options, where a form opens, gives you options, and you can either press ok or cancel. i can get the form to open when you click on a button on a separate form, but i cant get the options form to close. could someone help me out with this? thanks Patrick

opening and closing a popup form
Your popup form has a Cancel button that you want to close the form?
Try this as the event procedure for your command button: Private Sub cmdClose_Click() DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name End Sub -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP. Perth, Western Australia.

I don't understand - is there a close button ("x" in the top right corner)? If not then open the form in design mode and set the "close button" property to "yes". Keith. www.keithwilby.com

Thanks Allen, that has worked great. Weird thing is that I tried that
code before, and it didn't work. i tried it all again and now it does... oh well, i guess that's programming! thanks for your help
