    Query tied to form to open records but subforms not updating

    Hello


    I have a few append queries to add data to tables
    Then I created a form so users can add data to the tables that I couldnt get with the append queries
    To do this I create a query and use the criteria: [ENTER PLAN], the user enters the plan and the form opens with the table data
    Now I dragged a couple other tables onto this form and went through the wizard to add a table subform

    How would I get the subforms to update with the PLAN number as well? Its only updating the query that the form was created from but not the subform.

    I created all of my relationships, the sub form wizard is showing which field to join to, the PLAN number


    Thanks

    Are subform container control Master/Child Link properties set?

    If you want to provide db for analysis, follow instructions at bottom of my post.

    No they weren't but you just gave me enough information to do it. I went into the subform form properties and set the master/child fields to the PLAN field and now they are joined. I didn't know that, thank you.

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