Hi all,
On my forms I have a checkbox with code to lock record and do certain
things on the form via code by using Tag on fields and such.

I also have a check box on one form that I use to enabel or disable a
field. Is there a way to use more than one tag on a single field such
as Txt or Cbo? If So, How? I have tried several things but seams to be
out of my knowledge.

Thanks
Dave

Any object has only one Tag property.

If you really need the Tag to store multiple items, you can store a
delimited list, such as:
ShowThis=True; DisableThis = False; RememberSomething = 999

You can then use Split to parse the items into an array, and loop through
the array to find the value you want to know about.
