    Changing which form loads in a subform

    Many Many hugz, back pats, high fives. That works perfectly! I did comment back in the code you commented out. All it does is keeps updating the DB field RolllinkID on the control table. Something the user wanted, sigh.

    Changing which form loads in a subform

    I thought about tab controls, but opted for this method simply because the user is far more used to this format.

    Changing which form loads in a subform

    From the main form, the sub-forms properties Source Object is equal to one of the sub-forms. Should this be set to something else?

    Changing which form loads in a subform

    I tried to remove the linked fields and just use the sub-forms query to select the records. This still gave me no records. I then deleted the subform control off the main form, and added a new sub-form with no linking. Again, no data.

    Changing which form loads in a subform

    Looks like it would be the Master/Child linking that is the problem. The field in the Master/Child is the same across all the sub-forms, BUT, the queries on the sub-forms is unique to each sub-form. The code I am using right now is: Me.MainWindow.SourceObject = "Roll-Lists" I take it I need...

    Changing which form loads in a subform

    I have a form, sort of a menu, with a couple controls to set some parameters in a little database. On this form I currently have a sub-form control. What I need to do, is depending on which of several control buttons on the main form is pressed, the actual sub-form changes to be what the...

    subform detail vanishes with sub-form

    Yes that form, and its parent is Roll-Permits OK that seems to have worked nicely!!!! Sigh, something so simple has been driving me nuts for two days.

    subform detail vanishes with sub-form

    Would it be of any use if I uploaded the ACCDB I am working on. No big deal, as there is no confidential data in this section.

    subform detail vanishes with sub-form

    Found it!!! OK, can see a couple issues I will have to work around. One confusing thing left tho. The Form when opened on its own, buy clicking on it in the Objects list still comes up with no data, yet when I look at the query that it is supplying the data there are three records. Also...

    subform detail vanishes with sub-form

    Going over everything it could very well be a table linking issue. Where exactly is the linking information stored is it in the calling Form, or the Sub-Form? I am looking around for it, and it is evading me....

    subform detail vanishes with sub-form

    The missing data could be a filter issue. The blank form is very odd. I have a Menu -> Form ->sub-form. If I directly open the 'Form' all its data shows up, but none of the fields in the sub-form. If I open the Menu and use it to open the Form than there are no data fields in the form...

    subform detail vanishes with sub-form

    I have a sub-form/form created. When I open it as a form I get to see all my fields (with data missing) When this form is opened as a sub-form all the fields are missing The other odd thing is the query for the sub-form as 2 records in it, but these records no longer show up in either...

    Displaying current/total records in sub-form

    I have a sub-form that will have a random number of records depending on the calling form. It is important that the user know that they have looked at all the records. What I want to do, is pretty much copy what is down in the navigation part of a the sub-form "Record ## of 88" in the header...

    Turn on/off Form Edit mode.

    Unfortunately the RollID field is not unique in any of the tables. Most of the tables, other than a couple import/control tables all have ID as an autonumber for the PK. Control is a necessary evil as I do need to store a couple user dependent variables across sessions. These are thrown into...

    Turn on/off Form Edit mode.

    You are right. Now click on one of the control buttons at the top. Owner would be a good one, the two sub-forms become totally grey.
