I need my data to fill the sub-form come from one of two possible inputs based on plan-id. I am not clear on how to select the data to fill the sub-form.
There is the main form with data from DB-A, then there is a sub-form that needs filled with data from DB-B or DB-C, based on the key planid that is on DB-A.
How would get the sub-form's data to come from DB-B or DB-C. I could do it field by field; like this:
But i want a selection up front of DB-B or DB-C, not If-s per field.
Any good approach ideas??
Thx

There is the main form with data from DB-A, then there is a sub-form that needs filled with data from DB-B or DB-C, based on the key planid that is on DB-A.
How would get the sub-form's data to come from DB-B or DB-C. I could do it field by field; like this:
Inputs:
1) DB-A (main form DB)
2) DB-B (query brings in all fields with PLANid in a where parameter)
3) DB-C (query brings in all fields with PLANid in a where parameter)
Output:
1) Formusedfields: data going to the sub-form
I could see this working on the sub-form each screen field:
FormusedEmployer-Name:IIF(DB-A.MAIN[Planid]=qDB-B[PlanID],qDB-B[Employer-Name,qDB-C[Employer-Name])
1) DB-A (main form DB)
2) DB-B (query brings in all fields with PLANid in a where parameter)
3) DB-C (query brings in all fields with PLANid in a where parameter)
Output:
1) Formusedfields: data going to the sub-form
