How to make items Invisible

[Ray.R]

When I want to hide controls when deploying a program, but still want them for development / debugging, I use a TAB control and hide the TABs (pages) at the top.  That way it looks like a decoration.  I don't like hiding controls, as I have seen peopple not only hide them, but also place other objects on top, probably because they didn't see the control..

Hi

With this issue,how to make items visible and invisible i got another question.

For ex lets say we got some different fns in 3 cases, Whilst it is case1 fns in case1 will be visible and other fns are invisible. Its working fine.

Question is Whilst case1 the fns in case1 should be visible.

                    whilst case2 the fns in case1 & case should be visible

similarly  whilst case3 the fns in case1,2,3 should be visible.

How can we do this

Thanks

sorry i forgot to add a important point in the above question.

If the order of the case is sequence then we can make the itmes visible by making others invisible.

Bu if the order is not in sequence,then we need to make items accordingly.

If case3, only fns in case3 visible

if the next case is 1, then fns in case1 & case3 should be visible.

Thanks

Just make them invisible as the first thing in your program or the last. Below is a way when the program starts. Think dataflow!
