Allow filters on subform if main form Allow Filters set to no

What is the logic behind the ignoring of Allow Filters set to yes on a
subform if the main form has this property set to no?

I really need this and have spent days trying to get a solution the nearest
I've got is this code in the main form:

Private Sub Form_ApplyFilter(Cancel As Integer, ApplyType As Integer)
'prevent filtering of cases - causes errors.

MsgBox "You cannot sort or filter cases here."
Cancel = True
Exit Sub
End Sub

But for some reason in Access 20007 (not 2003) it runs twice - on any form.
