I'm a little surprised to see this is still going on.

I'm only glad there isn't this kind of thing happening at
rec.aviation.student... "trick" advice to beginner questions could get
dicey over there!

That said, as I've lurked for years without posting here, I would like
to thank those people who take the time helping others in this group.
Many of my questions have been answered in a nutshell by searching the
archives.

All the best,
Kay

Rachel,

Sel Short is, in fact, Don P Mellon, the resident troll in this newsgroup.
He's definitely unfond of MVPs, sometimes impersonates them, and always
tries to either belittle them or make them look bad.

I don't see that my response to your post actually made it to the server,
but I said that you could write DAO code to execute in the design view of
the Form to set the contents of the event property of those controls --
fairly simple code, and thus you won't have to manually enter the
information for each.

I also said that will be a pretty "busy" form, it won't be awfully
user-friendly, and maybe you should take another look at the design to see
if you can't group the functionality so you don't have so many toggle
buttons on the same form.

My name isn't Larry!

My original post was a legitimate request for help!

You're not only rude but ignorant!!!

Hey, mister, thanks for wasting my time!!!

Why don't you mind your own business when you don't have anything
constructive
to say.

Sorry, lady, I though your post was a joke. Larry Linson, our
resident
MVP
sickboy, is always posting messages like yours.

To be frank, you really need to rethink what you are doing. Any
professional developer will tell you that the number of toggle
buttons
you
are using is absurd (thus the implication that your post was a
"professional
joke.")

Sel

PS: Maybe if you explain what you hope to achieve with more than
200
toggle
buttons, something more can be suggested.

Sel,

I looked through Forms, APIs and Modules and did not find anything
referencing
my issue. Can you be more specific as to where to look.

Thanks!

Rachel

I have over two hundred toggle buttons on a form. Is there a
way
to
write
"general" code rather than code each button that will turn the
font
red on
the
button I turn on and turn the font back on the button I turn
off?

I'm trying to save not having to code each button but have
individual
buttons
react to On and Off.

Thanks!

Rachel

MVPs often build forms with 200 or more toggle buttons.

I agree. I wonder, since he posts from several aliases off of
Microsoft's Hotmail, and since he is impersonating a Microsoft Valued
Professional, that Microsoft might be persuaded to contact whatever ISP
he uses to type from, and suggest that his internet priviledges be
suspended for abuse.

Really? MVP = Microsoft Valued Professional? Or does Microsoft just own
the copyright on the letters MVP?

Well, no matter. Dumb as you are, I have to agree with your unstated
premise: Anybody who would claim to be in the Microsoft MVP program is
obviously unemployed and desperate and should not be giving advice to
anyone. And anybody who would suggest a visit to an MVP Web site ought to
be shot.

Don,
this wouldn't be a case of sour grapes, would it? Why don't you spare
us and just stop reading the NG? Nobody's forcing you to read any of
this. (It's still a free country, right?) MVP or not, there are LOTS
of people here that at least have something helpful to say. It's been
so long since you said anything helpful that I can no longer even
remember when it was. So spare us, will you?
