2010 Web Subform

[Learn2010]

I did create a 2010 web form with a subform. I was checking the "Create" options by reading the pop-up boxes over each form option. None of those indicated that you could use a subform on the web. Is this true? You cannot use a subform in an Access 2010 web database?

You should be able to create subforms.

Did you click a little drop down arrow to expand the controls group? If your screen is small enough, some controls may "disappear" and you have to click on that little button on the right side of the Control group to expand the menu. It's quite confusing.

Does this help?

Yes, I can see all of them. Here's how I did it.

I created a blank form. I added two fields from a query. I dragged another form onto that form and created a subform with that. I linked the Master fields. Is that a function that is accepted by Access 2010 web forms?

My job depends on this question. I needed a yes or no from you. I am going to say yes you can.

You can validate this by running the web compatibility checker and publishing the database to web. Compatibility checker will catch most of issues while publishing the database will typically validate that it does in fact work. The basic linking as we've used in traditional form hasn't changed for the web database.

I did that, cleaned up a few errrors, reran it, and it was error free. Thanks for your help and most of all, your reassurance.
