Whats wrong with this expression in text box on main form reading value of
field [SumOfEmp_Act_Prod_Hrs] in subform named 'qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked
subform' - it is getting #name? error

=IIf([Forms]![qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked
subform]![SumOfEmp_Act_Prod_Hrs]>1920,"EMP HOURS ARE GREATER THAN 1920","Emp
Product Hours Less Than 1920")

Golfinray - the format is/was blank in the sub form qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked
subform for 'SumOfEmp_Act_Prod_Hrs'. After reading your reply I tried
changing the format in the subform to general number and standard number. I
also tried the "1920" - still getting the #name? error.

To see if the problem is in your field name of the subform try this:
=IIf([Forms]![qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked
subform]![SumOfEmp_Act_Prod_Hrs]>1920,"yes","no")
That should tell you if it is finding the field name.

Golfinray,

I tried the formula you suggested...
=IIf(Forms![qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked
subform]!SumOfEmp_Act_Prod_Hrs>1920,"Yes","No")

got the same #name? error. could the issue be the space in the subform name
- Access created the name with the space...qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked subform.

Try this:
forms!form name!subform name!subformcontrolname
I think you are going to have to have the complete reference of form,
formname, subform name, control name instead of form, subformname, control
name. The space should not be the issue.
