How to open subform in Access 2000....easily

D

DOYLE60

For the life of me, I can't figure out, in Access 2000, when in design mode,
how to open the subform on a main form. In Access 1997, my subforms simply
appeared white and I just double clicked on it to open the subform. Now in
2000, the subforms appear in the control (no longer just white). Though I can
get to the properties of items in the subform now, for the life of me, how do I
open the subform in its full glory?

Thanks,

Matt

Close the main form.
Open the subform directly from the Database window.
You can now open the main form as well if you wish.

MS listened to our feedback that we all hated this, and in Access 2003 you
can right-click the subform control to open it in its own window. That's not
available in A2000, but michka created a "subforminator" you can download
from www.trigeminal.com
