I agree. I just wanted to get my first database working first. Now that I have my database, I will have a much deeper understanding of what I will learn about access in the future. In my experience it's just best for me to dive right in, get a rough understanding of what I'm doing, and then...

You're right. I just did not know enough about access to link them. mike60smart from UtterAccess.com walked me through it last night, and it did work. Thanks again for all the help. I would consider this solved.

I should also mention that ErrorsF is the main form.

I'll keep trying, but when I create the subform using the wizard, I don't get the option of using the text box as a Master. I uploaded the file incase you would like to take a look. Thanks again, Justin

Okay, I spoke too soon. I have the text box linked to the subform B. However, I can't seem to get that text box to become the Master of subform C's child. How to I accomplish this?

Thanks a lot! That is exactly what I needed! You have solved my problem completely. I have posted this on other forums and I would like to quote your solution. Do forums usually have a problem with posts that refer to "competitors"? Thanks again, Justin

Thanks, I found a web site talking about that technique about two hours ago, but the code (if you can call it that) was not working. I see you have it written out differently. I'll try it. Thanks again, Justin

Master/Child between Subforms Let’s say that A is the mainform. B and C are subforms each within A. Neither B nor C are subforms within the other. Is it possible to create a Master/Child relationship in which a field within B is the Master and a field within C is the child? If so, is it...

Okay, I put it in the main form. I have never dealt with the Master/Child relationship. I assume that I want the FactID field in ErrFactsF to be the Master and the FactID in ErrFactVerF to be the child. I attached a screen shot of what is happening when I try this. It is only offering me...

For what it's worth, I don't care if the ErrFactVerF is a subform within ErrFactsF or ErrorsF. All I care about is that ErrFactVerF displays information linked to the record selected in ErrFactsF.

Thank you for the reply. I put ErrFactVerF in the main body of ErrFactsF, but I still cannot see the info outside of design view. A user on another forum told me, "The reason that your subform does not display is that a form in datasheet view can't have a subform." "I would suggest that...

Thanks, that seems to be it.

I’m new to access. - I saved my first database and it was 2,176 KB - I saved the same file under a different name and got 704 KB - I saved that newest file under yet another name and got 528 KB - I repeated this twice more and got 548 and 534 KB. Is this anything to be concerned about or is...

I just started using access last night, and have only used it for about 6 hours since then, so I apologize if this is a question with an easy answer. I have not been able to find the answer online. In the file I've posted I have a form called, ErrorsF. At the bottom left of the form is a sub...
