    Post Creating a reference to the subform.

    Question: How come my subform referencing syntax works in some computers but not in others?

    Office version: Office 2003
    The syntax used is: =Forms!MasterForm!ChildForm!ChildFormControl
    Note: I know the alternative syntax =ChildForm.Form!ChildFormControl, but I don't use it.

    The syntax works in my computer and in client's computers, except for this one computer where the alternative syntax works instead.

    How do I resolve this problem? Do I need to reinstall Office?

    Thanks a lot.

    The only thing I can think of is that they're using a different version (patch maybe?) of Access.
