Combo box to search on a field in the subform

J

Is it possible to have a combo box search for a field that is the located on
the subform? I already have a combo box search for a field that is on the
main form however the customer would like to have a search option for a field
that is located on the subform. This is making me crazy so I thought I would
ask if it's possible. Thanks.

jlo,
Make that task a lot easier by placing a search combo in the Header of
the subform.
Then, you can use the same procedure you used on the main to do the same
type of search in the subform.
