	I am using v.10.2 and the Visibility function causes compilation errors, eventho Test Program generates no error. The name of the LE is correct in the function call. Any clues? Thanx

	If you have an LE that is not completely on the Form (ghosted), Test program will be okay, but Preview or Runtime will show compile errors because the LE isn't really there. Make sure your element is on the Form, not on the Canvas.

	the subform is on a tab page which completely fits on the form. I also used the SubformVisibility command and it also gives me a compilation error. The value of State in the command is still 0 or 1 i assume?

	The Visibility command will not accept a Subform element. If you are using the new SubformVisibility command, post your line of code and I'll see if I can spot the problem.

	the code is: if @Add then { SubformVisibility(Children_SFF,1) SubformVisibility(Children_SFT,0) } The premise it is that I want the subform to appear as a form if the user is in Add mode, otherwise it should appear as a table. Thanx.

	SubformVisibility takes the LE name of the subform element as a string. SubformVisibility("Children_SFF", 1) Note that the name needs to be the name of the Subform LE on the parent form, NOT the name of the Form it displays.

	does that mean that the parameter for the LE in the Visibility function call is also supposed to be enclosed in quotes? b/c in the Programming guide, the example is: Visibility(Company,0)

	Quote: does that mean that the parameter for the LE in the Visibility function call is also supposed to be enclosed in quotes? b/c in the Programming guide, the example is: Visibility(Company,0) No. The documentation for Visibility is correct. Subforms must be handled differently than other types of elements.
