Hide a section until condition met

[SciMax]

How can I hide a section on a form until a radio group condition is met?

This section should be hidden until the user selects a radio button. Value
"1" keeps the section hidden. Values "2", "3" and "4" make the section
visible.

In the section properties, use the display tab, click on conditional
formatting, then
enter the conditions to hide the section. For example, add a condition for
RadioBtn = 1, check the hide control box.

Thanks Lisa but that part of the code I already discovered.

What I'm looking for is to have that section hidden when the form is opened.
It should only be visible when RadioBtn is not equal to 1.

Create a Boolean variable called HideSection and set it to true by default.
Set the Properties of the section to hide the section when variable
HideSection is equal to true. Add rules for the radio button to set variable
HideSection to either True or False, as needed depending on its value.

Another way to do it is by using 2 conditions in the Conditional Formatting
dialog. Let the first one be that RadioBtn "Is blank". Then using "Or" add a
second condition of RadioBtn = 1. Then choose to hide the section. When the
form is opened as a new form and NO radio buttons have been selected the
section will be hidden, and once a radio button has been selected, the form
will hide when the value is = 1.

Or you can default the initial value of the button to some number other than
1.
