Thread: Change Property of another form

Change Property of another form Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I have a mainview detail form that I lock down depending on ownership of the record. Based on access or lack of access I also want to lock a data grid on a form that is a tab for this record.

Is this possible? I've been digging through the Dev Reference and DevLogix but I haven't found it yet.

Hi Mark,

You can grab a reference to the form via the forms collection. Something like this:

Dim frm
 
Set frm = Application.Forms("System:Form Name")
frm.TextBox1.Text = "Hello"
frm.DataGrid1.Refresh
 
' even access script on the form
frm.Script.SomeSubroutine "My Value"
 
Set frm = Nothing

Make sense?

Makes perfect sense and worked great. I started using global variables to pass the security status to the form and lock it based on that variable. It worked but this solution is a lot simpler.
