Hi, i have a form with two subforms. It seems to be working okay, but the
second form, which is a continuous form, only shows the first line. As it
has lots of drop down lists, and I often need to select more than one, it
should really open up the next line for entry. I had it right before, but
not sure what has happened. I think it is actually working and is more to do
with the amount of space I have allowed for the display, but don't know how
to increase it. Any suggestions would be very welcome. Many thanks.

One way this can happen is if the form you're using in the subform
control is too large. Open it in design view and be sure that all the
controls are dragged up to the top of the detail window; then drag the
bottom of the detail window up snug with the bottom of the controls.
