I have a form and in it is a tab control that has subforms in it.
everytime i try to enter something into the original form it tells me that
the expression is to complex.

I also have a question regarding the subforms in the tab controls. What
should they be liked to, do i link it to the Form ID (in this case it is call
tenderID).

Thanks

Possibly; possibly not. It depends on what you have and what you are trying
to accomplish.

One very common, and appropriate, use for Forms embedded in Subform Controls
is to show records in other tables that are related to the Record being
displayed in the parent Form. In that case, the LinkMasterFields would be
those Fields in the RecordSource of the parent form that uniquely identify
the record, and the LinkChildFields would be the corresponding foreign key
fields of the RecordSource of the Form embedded in the Subform Control.
