I have a form with two subforms that are "in synch" with each other -
the bottom form displays records based on the selection in the first
form. The second, synchronized, subform allows data entry.
Everything works fine. All data entry gets saved properly.
EXCEPT every time I enter data on the subform, there is a brief
flicker before the cursor moves to the next field. The record
navigation buttons quickly disappear and then reappear.
There is NO conditional formatting on the forms (I DID have some, but
removed it just in case it's contributing).
The first subform (sfrmTG1) is filtered by it's underlying query, the
link child / link master properties are empty.
The second subform has link child = lngCaseID; lngMasterID
Link Master Fields = unbCaseID; unbMasterID1
The two master fields for the link are calculated controls on the
parent object (frmMilestones) holding the subforms.
unbCaseID = [Forms]![frmMaster]![lngCaseID] (which is a form that is
always open when frmMilestones is open).
unbMasterID1 = [sfrmTG1].[Form]![lngMilestoneID]
Any thoughts on what could cause the flicker? It's problematic when
the user goes into a combo box entry - the flicker sometimes
interferes with the data entry. If the user just tabs through the
form, they see the flicker, but all seems to work pretty well. I'm
not comfortable ignoring the flicker......have a feeling it bodes bad
things to come......!!!
Thanks in advance.
