I have created a form containing subforms. However i can not add new records
using this form as access says it is read only. How do i remove the read only?
 
Make sure that the underlying query allows data adding/editing. If the query
is editable, then look on the Data tab of the form's property sheet, and
changes anything that asks "Allow" to yes.
 
If the source of the form is not editable, the form won't be either. The
table or query that runs the form should NOT have the arrow and asterisk at
the bottom greyed out. Also make sure the link master and child fields are
set properly and that allowedits is set to YES.

More info required. For example, how are the forms related to each-other?
The more info you provide, the better chance of getting a useful answer.
