Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not.

Combo Box related button

Is there a way to only allow a button linked to a subform/table to be 'clickable' if a specific item is selected in a combo box.  I have a member status list.  I only want a "death info" button connected to a subform/table to be opened if that member status combo box "deceased" is selected.  So if someone is still alive, that "death info" button is NOT clickable/selectable.  Thanks in advance.

Yes
In the 'on click' event, test for your condition and if  not deceased then exit sub else open the form.

If you are testing the value in a combo box, remember the syntax
Statuscombo.column (x) where x is the column number in the combo box. First column is 0
