I have a form with various claim information. I want to create a subform so
that I can record log notes and have them attach to that particular claim. I
already have one subform that works fine. However, when I try and create a
second subform it doesn't work. For example, I created the subform which
contains [date] and [notes]. I made a few entries which did populate the
tClietnNotes. But after I close the main form and reopen, there are no
entries in the sub form that I can see.

The table that the subform is bound to has to include a field that links it to
the record in the parent form. In your case that would be the ClaimID or
similar. Then you make the appropriate entries in the MasterLink and ChildLink
properties of the subform control.
