Default Assign Form Controls to a Group

I am working with a form that has some client-specific fields. Client X has
three bound controls, a,b and c. Client Y has two bound controls, e and f.
Right now, I show or hide the controls with an OnCurrent event.

If Me.txtClient = "X" Then
Me.cboStatus.Visible = True
me.lblStatus.Visible = True
'etc.
Else
Me.cboStatus.Visible = False
me.lblStatus.Visible = False
'etc.
End If

Can I group controls a,b and c? I imagine it would looks something like this:
If Me.txtClient = "X" Then
ClientX.Visible = True
Else
ClientX.Visible = False
End If

Where ClientX represents all controls associated with that specific client.

Can this be done?
If not, any suggestions to streamline the process? I have about 10 clients
that all require specific fields. To reduce confusion, I only want fields
relevant to a client to be shown.

Thanks!
PJ
