Hi Cristo,

The simplist method is to utilize the "Child and Master Link" properties of
the subForm.

For the combo box see the following for ideas:

I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please

Kindly let me know what are the various possible ways to
Click to expand...

Here is "something" on each, not claimed to be "all possible ways".
a)Filter recordset in subforms
Click to expand...

Generally, a subform is "synchronized" to show records related to the record
displayed in the main form through the LinkMasterFields and the
LinkChildFields of the Subform Control. If you want some other kind of
filtering, please clarify.
b)to filter the items listed in a second combo box
Click to expand...

Refer to the first ComboBox in the Query used for RowSource of the second
ComboBox, and Requery the second ComboBox in the After Update event of the
first.
I am using Access 2000.

You should be aware that Access 2000 is "out of support". It is also a
product that was plagued with many "issues", many of which are still
unresolved even with all 3 Service Releases applied. I suggest you consider
upgrading to Access 2002 or 2003, but at the very least, make certain you
have and have applied all three Service Releases to Access 2000.
