simple Veriable problem

[Honsolo]

I have a program that assigns a text box label to a variable.

If Check22.Value = 1 Then
If Text53.Text = "" Then
Text53.Text = Text38.Text
photo1 = "text53.text"
GoTo 100
End If
End if

I am using this as a tag for the location of the photo I placed in text53. I want to be able to go back and delete the photo I placed in text53 when check22.value = 0

I have tried everything and VB won't take it. It wants to make "photo1" = "" instead of making text53 = ""

what is currently in text53 and text38?

It wants to make "photo1" = "" instead of making text53 = ""

your code does not try to make text53 = ""

Here is what you have

'ALWAYS INDENT YOUR CODE
If Check22.Value = 1 Then 'use vbChecked or vbUnChecked not 0 or 1
    If text53.Text = "" Then
        text53.Text = Text38.Text
        photo1 = text53.Text 'remove the quotes
        GoTo 100 'NEVER USE GOTO (unless you are adding error trapping)
    End If
End If

If you want something to happen if check22 = 0 then why are you checking for it to equal 1? As you have it now, if it does not equal 1, nothing happens at all.

Ok I will do my best to explain.
When check1 = 1 it copies the contents of text38 to text53

then it assigns Photo1 with "text.53.text" value ( so it can remember where it pasted the contents of text38)

When check1 = 0 it uses the value in Photo1 to go back and remove the contents of text53.

I will go a little further
I have a picture box with an image and check box
when check1 = 1 then it copies the location of that image to a Que for printing
if check1 = 0 then it removes it from the Que

Photo1 variable is just used as a book mark telling the program what to delete. Being as it holds a value like "text1.text" I need the code to tell the program to change the contents of the text1.text to "" and not the change the value of Photo1 to "".
