   Private Sub Command2_Click()
      If Command1.Value = False Then
         Command1.SetFocus      ' Set focus to Command1.
         Command1.Value = False ' Set the Value property back to False.
         MsgBox "Command1.Value = " & Command1.Value
      Else
         Command1.SetFocus   'Set focus to Command1.
