Subform issue
in [Forms]
|
From: TT on 13 Jan 2006 10:28 This was starting to drive me crazy so I re-built a "test" subform and tried linking it to the same frmMainMenu. I used the exact same logic and the same syntax to write my code and for some reason, it now works. I'd still like to know why the original form didn't work, but at least I can continue on with my progress. I have kept both forms in case you have a solution for me.

From: Ken Snell (MVP) on 13 Jan 2006 13:52 Hard to say, although subtle corruptions can creep into a form during design/development. Personally, I'd delete the nonworking form and keep going with the working form. -- Ken Snell <MS ACCESS MVP> "TT" <TT(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C4A98FBD-60A2-4762-B5E6-90BE72123DCF(a)microsoft.com... > This was starting to drive me crazy so I re-built a "test" subform and > tried > linking it to the same frmMainMenu.
