Hi

I have a listbox and a subform both on a form (frmA). I would like to go to the correct record on the subform based on the selection made in the listbox

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Make the ListBox the MasterLink property setting for the Subform control. Make
the ChildLink property setting be the appropriate field in the Subform.
 
Hi,
You don't say what the common field is between the listbox and your subform
but I'll assume there is one. This code would go in the after update event of the
listbox:

Me.Form.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "yourField = " & Me.yourListbox
Me.Form.Bookmark = Me.Form.RecordsetClone.Bookmark

Usually the common field is some sort of ID field. If it's text, you have to delimit the
criteria with single quotes:
yourField = '" & Me.yourListbox & "'"

Now, usually in a form/subform setup, navigating in your mainform causes the subform
to display the 'details' for the current record on the main form, so your request is a bit unusual.
 
Hi Dan

Sorry for being such a pain....

I am getting Run-Time Error '7951'
You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the RecordsetClone Property

Any ideas

Again thanks for your hel
