LinkMasterFields properties...Lost!

J

JustMe

I am working in Access 2000

I am at a Total loss. I have a subform that I am trying to get a the
LinkChildFields and LinkMasterFields properties set so that I can display
data on my Main form from a Combobox. I can find Nowhere to set the
LinkChildFields and inkMasterFields properties.
I have looked in the form properties list and it IS NOT there. Can someone
tell me where I can find them.
Or am I dreaming that this should be able to be set.

Thanks

Make sure you are selecting the right thing. Since Access 2000, you can
edit your subform embedded in the form. (A dubious "improvement" in my
opinion). The problem is it's harder to select the Subform Control rather
than the subform. Clicking anywhere in the subform select the subform. But
the subform itself doesn't have the LinkMaster/Child properties, the Subform
*Control* does. Move your mouse to the very top of the control (above the
ruler line) and click there. If the black "handles" appear around the
subform, you've selected the control itself and you can set the properties.
