Access 2003 Compatibility Question

T

Tom Gray

I have had a couple of clients that have purchased new computers with the latest version of Access installed. They have experienced work halting problems.

I have not experienced any problems to speak of in the past when clients have upgraded versions from Access 97 to Access 2000 or Access 2002. so there is something new and different in this version

The problem is on subforms. Specifically subforms of subforms. The parent form shows details on the subform. That subform allows you to select a specific record and see details specific to that record. These do not display on the subform of this subform.

It seems tto be a problem with the way I "parameterize" the criteria for the sub-subform. I was able to allow it to display detail records at the customer's site yesterday by dummying down the query and allowing Access to make the links. But I could not (quickly at least) do the same for a report that is specific to the subform.

I have been using criteria for the query in the form of [Forms].[parentFormName].[subformname]![subformcontrol]

Thanks in advance. -Tom
