Please help! I want to hide the submit button if a record has an "Active" status and only show it if it is "Inactive".

I have a column called "Status" in my Project Request table. When I enter a new project, I patched this to inactive until the user finishes entering all the fields. Then, they can either save or submit. If they click save, its status stays inactive and is marked as draft. If they click submit, its status changes to active. Both inactive and active projects are viewable/editable on the browse project screen. What I want to do is if I edit an inactive project, the submit button should appear, but when I edit an active project, the submit button should not be visible. Do you know how I can accomplish this?

hi @teach20 ... I think you can pull this off by simply referencing the Status value in the Visible property for your submit button...

I'm making the assumption that you have the Project Request loaded into a variable of some sort on the page...

if so, you would use something like this in the submit button's visibility property:

varMyProjectVariable.Status = "Active"

since the visibility property is a boolean, if that statement is true, the button will be visible for your user... otherwise its hidden

Just an update, I solved it by using an If function in the Visible property. The formula I used is
If (galProjects.Selected.Status = 'Status (Project Request)'.Inactive, true, false)
