I don't understand. Why don't you use the Form Wizard to do this? Just start
the wizard, select both tables when it prompts you for the table names (yes,
you are allowed to select more than one table), and then tell it which table
is the parent (master) table. When it's done you can look at the query it
created and see what it looks like.

Creating a query is similar: create a new query in Design View, add both
tables, click and drag the ParentID from one table object to the other to
create the join, and add the fields you want to the grid.
 
Hello,

I've tried copying the below site's example, but I get a "run-time" error
message - "No value given for one or more required parameters." I'm not very
familiar with modules, but I did copy the function from the example to my db.
Was I supposed to modify anything with it?

Below is what I've created in a query.

Emails: Concatenate("SELECT email FROM qrycontactsExtended WHERE projectid
=" & [projectid]).

My Projects tbl has a one-to-many relationship with my contacts tbl.
Actually, I have a "Projects and Contacts" tbl to deal with the many-to-many
relationship with Projects and Contacts. Could this be part of the problem?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
 
what is the SQL for qrycontactsExtended ?

If I understand correctly, you might want to try the generic concatenate
