Subform skipped after first record

B

bdehning

I have a form(1) which has a subform(2) and the subform has a subform(3).

What property do I need to change for subform(2) to allow entry into subform(2) after the first record is entered?

On the second record entry it fills all fields on form(1), skips the subform(2) and goes directly to fields on subform(3)

You need to set the Tab Order of the controls on Form1 and on Subform2
appropriately; it appears that the Subform control containing Form3 is
first in the tab order of Subform2. Set the tab order so that it's
last.

The problem is that it works the first time through which tells me the tab order is correct. When I start a new record after having done one and get down to the last field on Form1 it then skips subform2 and goes directly to subfrom3.
