I am trying to use a sample on the MS assistance site to create a form to enter report criteria. I have followed all the steps very closely except for the actuall form, report and oblect names. When I enter thae data an press the button to run the macros, I get an error message that shows there being a problem with the macro. the message reads "you entered an expressuon tha has an invalid referenceto the property visible"the instructions for the macro show the following..
Argument: Setting
Item [Visible
Expression N

upon closing the error boxI get another error message that pops up referencing the macro and the above mentioned argument settings....I am a bit new at this so Im guessing its eiter a naming convention error that I have made or a syntax error. Any help would be highly appreciated, and please be gentle, as I said, I am a newbie..

Thanx
 
Add the name of the control to which the visible property pertains:

Item: [ControlName].Visible
