Access Access Database vba problem

[SteveMarwood]

Hi
I have downloaded a free Bill of Materials that I have modified
slightly to handle my data. The problem I have is that in the output table it doesn't display the ProductID. I have tried to do this with a query but when selecting the ParentID the query shows all instances of the componets.
Question is can anybody add the ParentID to the output table I have read through the module and it may as well be written in Martian!!!

Module for BOM:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit

'The Bill of materials processor:
' is designed to allow you to decompose an assembly into its component items.
' operates at multiple levels, where each item at each level can be a component
' or a sub-assembly. (SubAssemblies are further decomposed by the breakdown).
' uses 3 tables
' :Table 1, Assemblies contains the list of items needed to assemble any assembly.
' the items can be subassemblies or components.
' Comprises the following fields.
' : ComponentID, a text field to allow the user to recognise the item.
' : ParentID, a code field to allow linking.
' : NumberRequired, The number of units required for this level of this assembly.
' For a given assembly, the items that go into its construction are entered into the
' ComponentID field, while the parentID contains the code identifying the given assembly.
'
'Table 2, Components contains the list of items recognised by the Assemblies Table
' Comprises the following fields
' : ComponentID, a unique key, identifying the component
' : ComponentDescription describes the component
' : AssemblyBoolean to identify whether this is an assembly which has a breakdown
' entered in the Assemblies Table.
'Table 3, the Output Table is a variable purpose table which, in this example, identifies the
' the components and the number required to construct any assembly
' Comprises the following fields
' :ComponentID the same format as the Component Table.
' :Number Required. A Count of the number of items required.
'To Start the demonstration, select the assembly of choice from the input form
