Hi

I have created a tab control on my form and am trying to get one of the tabs
to display a subform. I dragged and dropped the form onto the tab control but
in the normal manner of creating a subform but it doesn't work. Can you not
do it this way? I've manually entered my link child and master field but when
I press the tab in form view it shows the subform but with no controls? It is
enabled etc - what am I doing wrong? Sorry... new to tab controls

Thanks in advance for any help.
Sue

Placed form as ordinary subform and still does the same thing so its not a
tab control issue. It does not allow NEW records to be entered, no controls
are displayed but if you create a record by opening the subform on its own as
a form and entering data manually, it will show the related data back in the
form/subform against the correct ID.

The subform is based directly on a table. Anyone any idea why new records
can not be created in the form as a subform?

Thanks
Sue
