Thanks Klatuu,
Your guidance offers a whole new approach for me that looks good for my needs.
To answer your entry question, I handled the two different controls for each
of the three-part name (LastName, FirstName, MiddleName in that order), along
with labels, without any real difficulty or complications. It was "visual"
and easy for me to work with.
Line 1 has a box (rectangle) containing these three controls. It's this
rectangle that I want to appear with a white background when that line is
VISIBLE. The page (containing other controls, such as street, city, state,
zip, tel, fax, email, etc.) has a different background color (medium green).
These controls (other than Line 1) have a background color of light green.
Line 2 has a similar rectangle containing the other three controls, named
FName, MName, LName, in that order. The controls and the rectangle
surrounding them has a background color of LIGHT GREEN when VISIBLE. But
when the three controls on Line 2 become INVISIBLE (via the Toggle Button),
the rectangle itself remains VISIBLE but appears blank inside. I want that
background color then to be LIGHT GREEN to match the background color of the
remaining address controls (street, city, state, zip, etc.). I don't want
the background color of this Line 2 rectangle to appear DARK GREEN that would
match the background color of the page. This would result in Line 1 (VISIBLE
when Line 2 is INVISIBLE) with WHITE background appearing totally separated
from the rest of the address lines.
Of course, when Line 1 (LastName, FirstName, MiddleName) becomes INVISIBLE,
all controls, including the rectangle, are INVISIBLE and the page background
color of DARK GREEN appears in the rectangle's place. Lines 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.
appear in together in LIGHT GREEN, and the lines appear all together. Your
solution accomplishes this as well. Your approach, if I'm reading your
expression corectly, eliminates the need to use two lines, and I like that
idea.
Sorry for the long explanation. My concept is rather "visual" in laying out
two lines for the name controls and is easier for me to follow. I'll work on
your approach which opens the door wider. That's how we grow. Thanks for
your valuable input.
