Hi,

I can send a sample database

If it is small enough for an email, you can send it to the email address at the end of this page's text and I'll forward it to Microsoft.

locked=true, enabled=false. But if the text box has conditional formatting, it can still get focus

This is only the case if you haven't clicked the responsible, rather hidden and illogical little box in the Conditional Formatting dialog. In the dialog where you set the condition and formating, It's located to the right of the font color icon. If you hover your mouse over it, the tooltip "Aktivieren" appears in the German version of Access, and you have to click on it to achieve the opposite, i.e. deactivate. Don't ask any further. 😉

Servus
Karl

Hi Karl, thanks for your reply.
The Focus-tip about disabling in the formatting-dialog works, but it is kind of strangely done.
I removed the note to this from the sample database that I sent you. I hope a solution will be found for the zoom behavior.
Happy weekend
