Inserting Subform

[Charlie2]

I am using access 2002, I have two forms, one named frmEquipmentWithTests which I want to be my main form, I also have a form named frmTestHistorySubform which I want to be my subform, my question is: How do I insert the subform into the mainform ? Ive read my book and cant find anything about it.

When you have the main form open in design view, on your toolbar make sure the wizard button is pressed then press the button for subform/subreports. It's not very obvious which one it is so just put your mouse pointer over each one to get the help label for it to find it. The wizard makes it pretty easy to do.

Many thanks

I would never have figured that one out.

Erm

I might be dum but I dont see any button marked subform/subreports, you mean the wizard button on the toolbox right? control wizard?

It's on the toolbox. I don't know how to describe it and unfortunately they're not labeled. But you know how if you put your pointer on top of something a label pops up. All I can suggest is do that for each button. If you have the toolbar docked you might want to pull it down so it's floating. Sometimes when bars are docked not everything is visible.

Aha

Found it, I had the toolbox undocked, the subreport button wasnt on it.

Thanks Again
