Greetings 

case1.JPG

i'v created a new controls and i want them appear or disappear depending on selection of  Case Category

So that when he chooses an (absence) he shows the absence group and hides the leave group
If he chooses leave, the leave group appears and hides the absence group
If no one chooses, the two groups are hidden

 i crated modified method on (Case Category) controls to check that but that's code not working when start Load form event (i mean when create)

how can i do that?!!

    Did you debug it? What information did you learn from debugging?

    What if you try to print to infolog the value of the field (the same value that you use in your if statement)? What does it print to infolog?

    Could you maybe share any more details about what happens when the modified method is called? Does it go into the if statement?

    Also do you call this same code from the active method of the data source as well?

    Modified method is called only when the control is modified.

    In addition to that you need to call your logic from the active method of the form data source. That's called every time the active record changes.
