The only way to have forms act as "related" like your tables is to use a
main form with embedded subforms. Then the MasterLink and ChildLink
properties of each subform control will provide such linking. If you open
the forms separately then there is nothing to make them act related or
linked unless YOU add VBA code in all of them to obtain that behavior.
