Hi, I have a form which three tabbed sections on it.
On two of these there are subforms related obviously to the main/parent form. The tables are definitely related and connected properly.

My problem is this: when I move through the main/parent form using the standard navigation buttons (or even buttons I place on the form myself) the next record appears as normal BUT the related subform details on the sections remain those related to the original record. I'm fairly new to Access (but not to db design) - is there something I need to do to force Access to refresh these subforms and their datasets?

Hope I've explained this ok - thanks in advance for your help ...
 
You need to make sure that the subform's MASTER / CHILD links are set properly.
 
Thanks Bob for such a speedy answer (!) - could I possibly ask you to elaborate slightly ... where would I find the master/child link settings or do you just mean the relationship links between the tables as in one to many etc?
