Hiding (sub) forms

[Fredrated]

hiding forms from the developer: how is this possible?

I have inherited an application.

The main form has a tab control with subform controls on the tab pages.
The source objects of the subform controls are subforms (it seems).
When the main form opens the subform controls are populated by the proper
subform source objects.

Problem: the source object subforms are nowhere to be found in the database
forms window! Even when the main form is not open!! I cannot find them,
where are they????

Help!!!

Maybe they're hidden. Set your view options (Tools -> Options -> View tab)
to show hidden objects, and see if you can see them then.

Very good, I looked for something like that but couldn't find it.
This did the trick, thanks!
