I CAN definitely confirm this to be a bug. I rebuilt the forms/tables/queries in question form scratch and still can't see the subform as a form, instead it sees it as a report and you can refer to it or access any controls via the expression builder.
No copying/pasting,etc...

I don't use Outlook myself but there are many code examples on the site and Google if you do a search.
Also examples in the Sample Database section.

I could of course be wrong, but will leave it at that.
Thanks for the...
I have officially confirmed that it IS an issue. I placed a NEW different form and it showed up in the Expression Builder as a Report where you can't see or access any fields. ???
I don't think my situation is all that unique, maybe it is.
I have a frmEmployees with tabs on it with subforms on...
