    Strange form inconsistency

    Thanks but I already did a long take by cloning the subform's table and adding up the individual lines. Then I simply updated the main form's text box from the aggregate variable. It seemed to work.

    Running sub procedure in Excel from Access

    My previous experience with working with Excel from Access always got me into running the whole code totally from Access.

    Importing Foxpro data and appending

    why not link the foxpro table to your access database and then create a query that appends new/selected records as per criteria you can specify either hard coded or parametrized. this way, you don't have to worry about the foxpro table version.
