Problem with sub-reports

[chrislee]

In my Access 2000 format database that I'm developing in Access 2002, I have a report to which I want to add 3 sub-reports.

I add the first one -- no problem. I add the second and can link the child/master fields OK and preview OK.

The problem occurs when I save changes (either clicking Save on the toolbar or pressing control+S). As soon as I save, the source object in the report container completely changes to some other report in my database.

Any ideas anyone?

TIA,

Chris.

Try turning off the AutoName Correct feature

Rich, you are a total star.

This problem has been sitting on my to do list for months, and I couldn't find any reference to the problem on the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

Did you experience the problem, or have you seen it referred to elsewhere? I'd like to know why AutoCorrect wants to change my subreport objects like that!!!

Thanks again,

Chris.

I count myself fortunate that I don't have that version of Access, it's a known bug though. There is a "fix patch" but I've read elsewhere that the patch introduces further bugs

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
