Hi I have an inventory db and I'm creating a entry form.

So here's what I want:

Field: LAN (drop down menu: "High Side;Low Side")
Field: WSID (text) - field is disabled in the form.

What I want is when LAN="High Side", enable WSID. I've tried expressions, nothing seems to work. Please help. Thanks!

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
I think you'll need some code, probably attached to the Change event of the drop down menu.

eg
Code:
Private Sub LAN_Change()
    WSID.Enabled = LAN = "High Side"
End Sub

This should enable the textbox WSID when High Side is selected in the combobox LAN and disable it otherwise.
