Parent Child Forms

[Niles]

I have a form within a form (for a database that someone else developed). Recently, the users are unable to see the data in the child form. The parent form shows the names of individuals. The child form is supposed to bring all the messages connected with that name. Although the table shows that there should be records in the child form, the child form comes up blank. Any suggestions on what could be wrong
the Db is in Access 2002

* Do you Compact & Repair the database regularly? You should!

* Check the RecordSource of the Subform.

* Check the LinkMasterFields and LinkChildFields Property of the
Subform*Control*.
