I want to filter to different values on my subform and remove the filter
without removing the filter applied to the main form. Is this possible and
how?
 
You can turn the filter off for a specific form by setting its FilterOn
property, e.g.:
Forms!MyMainForm.FilterOn = False
or
Forms!MyMainForm.MySubform.Form.FilterOn = False

HOWEVER, if you apply a filter to the main form and also to the subform,
Access gets confused when you try to remove the filter. This bug is issue #1
in this article:
Incorrect filtering
at:
http://allenbrowne.com/bug-02.html

The bugs discussed in that article apply to Access 95, 97, 2000, 2002 and
2003, but they are fixed in Access 2007.
