Hide ActiveX Checkbox on worksheet

**ker9** · 04-13-2011, 04:07 PM

I have a radio button that when true will hide a column. Column has checkbox I also want to hide - but it's not getting hidden with the code below. Any ideas?

Please Login or Register  to view this content.

The properties indicate the visible value is changing to false, but I can still see it (Design Mode is off).

Thanks for any help.

You will have to change the visible property to hidden when that radio button is true...so it will hide along with the column.

I am not hiding the radio button - I want to hide the checkbox. Even thought the code changes the checkbox's visible property to false, it is still visible.

re: my example
Is that what you wanted to do?

argh! Yours is working and mine wasn't. Why... I thought, well, maybe the box is not totally in the column, so I started messing with that and making sure it was completely in the column. No change. Then I moved the box completely out of the column and behold - somehow there was a 2nd checkbox directly under my checkbox (who knows why or how) and that was what was not getting hidden.
Thanks very much for trying to help me!
