Hi all,
I've created three forms. Main, Summary, Detail. The main form is simply a
meny type form that allows me navigation to the other forms. Summary is to
view data triggered by a query within the main form and summary is to edit
and view the result of the query.

In the SUMMARY page I want the view to be DATASHEET allwoing for the subform
DETAIL to be called in.

So here is my problem if I run the SUMMARY form directly from the form
screen it runs fine. However when I run it through the main form it takes
on
another view. Can a DATASHEET view be seen when the form is called in by
another form? Any help would be appreciated.

Evedwards,

Truely what you have described sounds like a version of who's on first...
You lost me the second paragraph. IF you are trying to call a subform on a
continous form then no it will not work.

You also have another issue as you are using 'Detail' as the name of a form
and 'Detail' is a reserved word. (For a complete list see
http://allenbrowne.com/AppIssueBadWord.html#M)


"However when I run it through the main form it takes on another view."
What would the OTHER view be?

"Can a DATASHEET view be seen when the form is called in by another form? '
This depends on the other form, as I mentioned if the other form is in
continous view then no.

If none of the above were the answers you were looking for then ore
information is needed along with Access version.
