Setting a control's stacking order

All,
I'm trying to figure out how to bring to front a control using code:

Basically I have 5 Rows of boxes that make up an address.

Country = Combo Box
Address line 1 = Text Box
Address line 2 = Text Box
Address line 3 = 1 Text Box Or 3 Text Boxes depending on the country that is chosen
Address line 4 = 1 Text Box Or 3 Text Boxes depending on the country that is chosen


If the country is not US that I want to hide the visibility of the three text boxes that make up street number, street address, apartment number and show only the Address3 text box that currently resides below the three visible text boxes. I then want to do the same with city states zip.

The code that I've attempted is below:


If tmp.bxCboCountry > 1 And tmp.bxCboCountry <> "" Then
tmp.bxTxtStreetNum.Visible = False
tmp.bxTxtStreetName.Visible = False
tmp.bxTxtAptNum.Visible = False
tmp.bxTxtCity.Visible = False
tmp.bxTxtState.Visible = False
tmp.bxTxtZip.Visible = False

'
tmp.bxTxtAddress3.Visible = True
tmp.bxTxtAddress4.Visible = True
Else
tmp.bxTxtStreetNum.Visible = True
tmp.bxTxtStreetName.Visible = True
tmp.bxTxtAptNum.Visible = True
tmp.bxTxtCity.Visible = True
tmp.bxTxtState.Visible = True
tmp.bxTxtZip.Visible = True

'
tmp.bxTxtAddress3.Visible = False
tmp.bxTxtAddress4.Visible = False
End If

The problem with this is while it does accurately adjust the visibility of the boxes it does not change the stacking order and I can't seem to find how to do that basically sending city state zip to the back and bring forward address4.

I would appreciate any advice on accomplishing this task. Thanks in advance. - CES

I'm stupider then most I had another function that was always setting the visibility of bxTxtAddress4, bxTxtAddress3.Visible = False. -CES
 
Hello,

You may want also want to set the hidden controls properties to test the
situation:

1) Set all of the other fields to FieldName.Enabled = False
2) Set all of the other fields to FieldName.TabStop = False

If the issue persists, will you compress a sample database, and send it to
me for reproducing? Please remove online from my displayed email address.
Thank you.
