Hi! I'm new to QV, so any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. I currently have a document with 5 sheets. The first sheet forces the user to select one or more of three fields. I want to hide the remaining 4 sheets in the document until at least one of the fields has a value set in the first sheet.
I am trying to accomplish this by doing the following: hide the remaining 4 sheets by setting "Document Setting" -> "Sheet Properties" -> "Show sheet" -> "Conditional"=0. Then I am setting a trigger when a selection is made on the field: "<field-name" -> "On select" -> "Add" -> "Activate Sheet" -> "<sheet-id>".
But this isn't working. I am assuming this is becuase "activate sheet" is not the intended action, but it is the closest action I could find to what I wnated to do. Can somebody please help me?
thanks,
Haritha

Thank you for the prompt response, shree909. But I want this to be seamless and transparent to the user, which is why I am leaning towards using triggers.

Hi Muthyala,
To show only the specific sheets, You can create some buttons in the home page and give one variable and give values to different sheets. I have attached the document with home page sheet, and four other sheets . Hope it helps you .
