Display Continuous Form Alongside a Datasheet.

[Andrew]

Is it possible to have a continuous form alongside a datasheet? I would like
to display a list of employees in a continuous form on the left side of the
screen. On the right side of the screen would be a datasheet or other
continuous form showing a list of employee skills. As the user selects an
employee record on the left side, the subform on the right would show a list
of that employee's skills.

Thanks.

Ah. Not so fast. How did he do it? When I try to add a subform to my
continuous form, I get a message that subforms are not allowed on continuous
forms.

You put two subforms side by side on a main form.

But how can a subform be continuous? I know how to make a form continuous.
But in that case Access will not allow subforms.

I'm having no luck trying to make a subform continuous.

Thanks for your continued help on this.

Thanks. I figured it out. I have to make two normal forms. Then I put them
in another form. That automatically makes them subforms. Now I just need to
figure out how to code it all. Thanks again.
