Changing the default view of subforms

[mcheng]

Hi, rather than going into the >View >SubForm >Datasheet view or >Form
view menus everytime the form opens to change the default view of the
sub forms (which I'm having to do right now), is there a way to set
the default view of the subforms to either datasheet or form view?

Thanks,
Michael

Open the form in Design View.
Click on View + Prperties
Click on the Format tab.
Set the Default View to Datasheet or Single Form or Continuous Form as
wanted.
Save the changes.
