Subform Problem

S

Sonya

I am so stuck on this problem. I want my two subforms
to work with the main form, but not each other. When I
enter info in my 2nd subform, I can only see it if I go
to the corresponding line on my 1st subform. I want my
subforms to work independently. Which means when I pull
up the main form I will be able to view all the info in
each of the subforms I hope I am explaining this right.
You can e-mail me if that would be easier. I tried the
below answer, but wasn't what I needed. Thank you in
advance for your help.

Not real clear on what you are asking but it sounds like
if you want the subforms to show any data, and not just
data that "Matches" the main form then open the form in
design view and click on the subform to access the
subform controls properties. Remove the parent, master
link field criteria. Your forms will now work
individually. Danger: any information entered in
subform will no longer be associated with the main forms
recordsource unless you enter the value for the field
that relates the two records manually. Dont know if this
is clear enough. HTH

I have a main form w/ 2 subforms. When I enter data in
the 1st and 2nd subform, they work simutaneously. I
cannot see the information I entered in the 2nd subform
unless I click on the corresponding line on the 1st
subform. How can I get the subforms to work
separtely? I want to be able to veiw the info for each
subform separte. I hope this make sense.
