    Subform in a Tab Control on a Main form

    Is it possible to put a subform on a Page of a tab control of a Main form? I tried to do this but when I try to add data to that subform I get an error message. "The object doesn't contain the Automation object 'tblParameters' "



    I have to run to catch a plane, but will check responses later. Thanks for any help.

    Not sure what your problem is but putting a SubForm on a Page of a TabControl on a MainForm is done all of the time.

    My appologies...the error message I was receiving was due to an incorrect setup of the link between the child and parent that I made. Once I fixed that, it works fine. Thanks.
