    Strange Behavior involving Tab in Upper Left Corner of Form

    I am using a form and subform to track data in my DB.



    When I open the main form, the tab in the upper left of the form has the name wgt. However, when I open the form in design view, this tab changes to job. I am having some issues involving totals from the subform and I am wondering if this could have anything to do with it.

    The little icon looks like a form. I have a table named job but nothing but a control on the form called wgt.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Greg

    The NAME of the form is under the property NAME ,wgt.
    you can set the property CAPTION ,to show: job.
    The caption has no effect on totals.

    in the sub form, in its footer, put a textbox, =sum(field)
    this will show total.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
