Hidden list box toggle

[#1]

Hello,

I have a list box that will be locked and hidden.  I also have a button that I want to use to toggle the visibility of the list box.  I created a variable called "isVis" which is set to 1. 

I have the action on the button running a macro that has:

sub changeVis
     if isVis = 1 Then
          isVis = 2
     else
          isVis = 1
     end if
end sub

If anyone can tell me what is wrong with this that would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

Jeff

The code below is similar to what you want and should lead you in the right direction. You can also show or hide a list box using the "Show - Conditional" on the Layout tab.

Sub ShowHide

set v = ActiveDocument.Variables("vReport")

if(v.GetContent.String)= "Crops" then

set v = ActiveDocument.Variables("vShowHide")

           v.SetContent  "2", True

else

set v = ActiveDocument.Variables("vShowHide")

           v.SetContent  "1", True

end if

end sub

Stephen,

Thank you!  Adding the .SetContent and .GetContent  calls in worked!
