Reference to other cell is intermittent

I have a header form that has a detail subform. As the detail is entered
into the subform a total is calculated in the form footer within the subform.
On the main form, I have a field that references that total from the
subform. I am using an Access 2003 project, windows xp sp1,and sql server
2000 (backend) for my main program. I distribute a run time version to
individuals. I made some changes to a specific dept and the person that
helped me from this department has successfully entered records on these
forms flawlessly. (My Access Project also works flawlessly) When I
distributed this version to another person, the cell that references the
total field in the subform does not work. It remains blank. I have tried
closing the form and reopening it to no avail. I then tried another
individual and their's doesn't work either. One thing that is different on
those failed clients versus the successful clients is that the failed clients
use Office 2000 and the successful clients use Office 2003.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,

This is probably a VBA reference problem. Office 2000 and 2003 have
different library reference versions. If you created your front end in 2003,
it probably has the Office library set to version 11. For 2000, the version
is 10.
