Hello,

I recently loaded an application on a PC that uses
Windows 98, and none of the subforms display. Can
someone help me find what's wrong? Thanks in advance to
anyone who replies.

That's a bit bizarre. One possibility: if the database was copied from
a CD, Windows will have marked it Read Only. Subforms which have no
records and which are also not updateable will appear blank.

Use Windows Explorer, select the .mdb or .mde file, and right
mouseclick it; view the file's Properties; and if necessary uncheck
the Read Only checkbox.
 
John, you're a godsend! That's exactly what the issue
was. Man, I was pulling my hair out. Thank you very
much!
