Does anyone have any suggestion on how to change the value of a text box that is not visable. Access wont let me set focus on it.

Thanks

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.

I'm not sure I understand the problem 100%.

Are you trying to do this on a form? If so, are you trying to change the text manually or via a macro? A macro can change the value of a text box when the "visible" property of the text box is set to "no" by using the "SetValue" command.

Let me know if I am not reading your thread correctly.
