Display of sub-form

[Guest]

I have put two sub-forms onto a form using forms that is already working properly when linked to another form. The top of the new form (that the sub-forms are placed into) is just a "copy" of the already working form and that calls these (sub) separate forms as necessary.

Both forms were brought into the main form using the wizard using the "same" parameters.

The first sub-form, in design mode, displays correctly, but when run, changes to a line list (table view) of the data.

The second sub-form displays correctly and as wanted.

What could be some of the reasons this is happening?

Thanks,
John H W

Select the subform on the Forms tab of the Database window, and open it in
design view.

Set the DefaultView property (on the Format tab of Properties box, when you
have the properties of the Form).
