How to fix "can not enable after disable" message?

[gina farrow]

When I enter the code below I get a message"can not enable after disable." Access 2010 it works,however in access 2007 it doesnt work.

Private Sub CheckBox2_Click ()
If CheckBox2 = True Then
CheckBox2.Enabl ed = False
End If
End Sub

You cannot Disable a Control when it has the Focus. To get around this, in the AfterUpdate() Event of the Control, shift the Focus to another Control on the Form, then disable the Control, as in:

Private Sub CheckBox2_AfterUpdate()
  If CheckBox2 = True Then
    Me![txtDate].SetFocus              'Shift Focus to Date Text Box
      CheckBox2.Enabled = False        'Now, Disable CheckBox2
  End If
End Sub
