Continuous subforms in continuous subforms

Y

Access does not allow you to create a continuous subform in the detail
section of each entry of a continuous subform. Is there any way around
this? The data sheet view doesn't show the subforms, and neither it appears
does the pivot table. Does someone have a workaround?

Thanks.

IIRC, you can use the SubDatasheet (which can be either a Form in
CtsFormView or a Datasheet) of a Subform in Datasheet.

Personally, I won't use this sort of arrangement. It is simply too complex
and too unfriendly for the average users and therefore, it is not a
well-designed user interface. I would suggest presenting the data or allow
the user to do data entry in an easier and more friendly way perhaps using a
set of "linking" Forms.

Thanks Van,

I decided to open a pop-up form from up a button in the detail section. It
seems to be the way to go.
