Can someone out there help me with the following little problems...

I have tried, in vain, two link to datasheet subforms but just not possible (keeps saying "cannot link unbound etc...", is there anyway to sort this out?

secondlly, I would like to hide the main database objects window from the user (i.e. user cannot see anything but forms (for data input/update/delete)

Any help greatly appreciated.

1. The message means just what it says. The forms need to be bound to a recordsource to be linked. If one or both of the forms is not bound, you will have to manage the whole process yourself with code.

2. Check out the startup options.
