Form/Subform Merge

Hi, i have a Parent form (Contract Profile) and about 12 subforms (Contract
Review, Vendor Assessment.... etc). The way it setup currently, i have the
main parent form and at the bottom i have tabs setup for the other forms.
Everything is working perfectly except the design looks jumbled. Is there a
way to add the Parent form into the tabs with the other sub forms so that it
looks like one form with tabs?

like copy your Parent Form naming it ParentSubForm

then in the ParentForm you strip out the data that is now in the
ParentSubForm and add another tab

and in the new ParentSubForm you strip out all the Tabs....

then add ParentSubForm into ParentForm in that vacant Tab you set up

?? maybe....

Thanks, I tried that and got a message saying you can't place a form within
itself. Any other suggestions?

you definitely can't place a form within itself....

that shouldn't have been an issue....with a copy and renaming it...then one
should have a different form , not the same form....

making a generic form to use as a template to copy for other forms is pretty
standard procedure to short cut duplicate generic layout items.....
