After searching through the forums, I was unable to find a thread that addresses and/or answers my question, so hopefully it is safe to post.

I am currently building a database for the company I work for that is fairly similar to the Northwind Database; however it is made from scratch so hopefully some of the common problems with that database won't find their way into mine.

My problem is that when I go to my Orders form, I pick a customer from the main form, which creates a record on the Orders table. When I then go to the subform to choose a product/line item, I get the error in my title ("The LinkMasterFields property setting has produced this error: 'The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'OrdersT.") as soon as a product is chosen from the drop down list.

My understanding of access is quite limited; I have had no formal training or education in this program; I don't do too bad with excel, though, so if an excel concept or terminology applies to this issue, maybe that will help.

Thank you in advance for any help regarding this issue!
 
LinkMasterFields normally contains the name of a control on the parent form or field in its recordset. It cannot refer to a table.
