I am baffled and am hoping someone can help me. I have a form with a subform. The subform also has a subform. Both subforms are displayed in datasheet view. When I enter a record on the first subform, then enter a child record on the second subform, a plus sign appears on the first subform, indicating that there are child records. However, when I exit the database, then open it back up, the plus signs on the first subform are gone. I am so very confused. The child table references the primary key of the parent table. It is set up for referrential integrity. Thanks.
