Using A2003 I am creating a new contacts database for my employer. I have a
couple of "special" features I would like to incorporate onto the main
Contacts form.

a, I have set the Shipto text boxes to invisible on form current and if the
Shipto Details checkbox (unbound) is ticked, the fields become visible for
data entry. This works as expected but what I'd like to have happen when the
form is opened is if the selected contact has Shipto info previously stored,
the Shipto textboxes will automatically appear as visible.

b, Textbox default value. Further to the above, how would I go about using
the mailing address details as the default Shipto address details once the
Shipto textboxes are visible?

Many thanks in advance.......
