I populate my subform by entering matching data into the main form. This is
done by using the Master and Child fiels properties of the subform. Good!

However I also want to past different data from the main form to the subform
and after reading the posts they all suggest doing the same Master and Child
Field properties please help.

I found out that both cannot be done on the same form.

Please help

Why?

Storing data redundantly is almost NEVER a good idea.

You can do it, programmatically in VBA, but before I post code I'd
like to be sure I wouldn't be giving you the tools to do something
you'll regret doing!
