Is there a command for setting an element as not visible when used on a subform? Or has my imagination got me once again. (So many great ones to remember and I could not find it in the manual)

I use this now but it has its issues so I thought if there was a command I should start using it

If @StandAlone() = 0 Then
{
     //Running as a subform

     Visibility(CusID, 0)
     Visibility(D, 0)
     Visibility(I, 0)

Thanks

Ray,

When I use the code as described above the elements are actually visible until focus is given to the subform, then they vanish.

Actually I have had better results adding command buttons to my form (as you know they do not show on the subform) I then use sbasic to set the label to the value of an  element I have permanently non visible. This allows me to see the data in the database when in it directly but hides it on the subform.

But in all reality I usually crash Sesame when I use either of these techniques because I usually end up trying to fill the hidden element on the subform and that is a no no with sesame.

An example of what I was trying to do is capture the CUSID onto a line Item line in the subform. This is helpful to have so a user can easily run a query (from the line items database) and see all the items a customer purchased over any length of time. It works well but looks ugly on the line item subform on the invoice, and also the extra elements like CUSID, date and invoice number waste valuable space on the screen.

I guess I just imagined a method of making a regular element act invisible to the subform.
