I have a subform on a form that I want to open as a form while the subform is
still open so that the user can read it easier, then close and go back to the
original form with the subform. I can do this, but anything I do to the form
changes on the subform and not the form opened of the subform. I tried some
work arounds, but am looking for something better. I can close the form with
the subform and then open the subform as a form, etc.
 
Hi, Ken.

Just requery your subform when you return, say in the OnActivate event
procedure:

Me!YourSubform.Requery

Sprinks,

I'm not sure how that would solve my problem. I actually need to close the
subform
(or simulate this) so that when I open the subform as a form, it thinks it
is the primary form. Currently, it knows that the subform was opened first so
it keeps the activation.
