Sub forms - need help fast

Guest

Hi,

i have a main form which has tabs relating to different tasks for customers
ie. tab one is contacts, tab two is farm description, tab three is a
declaration form. in the declaration tab i need to have a sub-form (i think)
which allows data entry but also holds details from tab two.

ie the farm description fields will show up so that i know what data to
enter to the correct farm

If you have a text box named Text0 on another tab, you can show the same
thing on this tab by adding a text box and setting its Control Source
property to:
=[Text0]

If you want something that is visible in all tabs, add the text box to the
form, outside the tab control. Then move it on top of the tab control, and
it will show through all pages.

Another alternative is use the Title bar of the form to show a crucial piece
of information. Use code in the Current event of the form to set the Caption
of the form.
