Set subform to AllowAdditions=true from mainform button

[Guest]

Hi
I have 2 tables, Vehicles (PK "VehID") and Other Info (PK "OtherID"), joined
in a one to many by VehID field.
I have a main form "Vehicles" with a subform "Other Info" displaying related
records. From the main form's "Add New Record" how can I also set the
subform to allow new related records (AllowAdditions = True)?
I've tried Me.[Other Info].AllowAdditions = true which doesn't work... I'm
not sure what the syntax needs to be. Do I need to include "Form" here
somewhere? Please help.

I guess I'll probably have to save the Vehicle record before the Other info
table wil be able to accept a related record.
