I am trying to make a project checklist where certain sections are only accessible if a prior section is filled out, or also, so that certain questions can only be answered if the question before it is answered a certain way. For example, "does your project have a streamside access?"...if yes, then you'd have to answer more questions, if no those questions would be turned off. Is there any way to do this?

HI,
i would create the additional contraols and set visible to false to start. then once the control previous is either ticked or selected (depending what you use) you can turn the visible to true. eg with combo box's with yes no default

Code:
if combobox1.value = "Yes" then
combobox2.visible = true
end if

Hi. Thanks for getting back to me!
I should have mentioned before that I am not a programmer and this is all kind of new territory for me. To do what you recommend, where do I write the code and how do I apply it to a control?
