Subform is no longer working

I created a form with a subform embedded. Data has been entered into the form
and the subform for the past few weeks. It was working fine, then yesturday
there was no information on the subform, well just the Case ID which is what
links the forms.

- All the information is still on the table, its on the original subform,
just not available on the subform that is within the form.

- The masterlink/ child link is the same, I even tried creating an entirely
new form by dragging the subform over and then by using the form wizard,
neither worked.

So now I am at a lost, b/c I know all the information is on the subform, it
is also on the table, therefore I am not freaking out. It just does not make
sense as to why it won't appear when I drag the subform over.

Please help with solving this issue, I'm not sure of what I am overlooking.
 
If you open the subform all by itself, does the data show?

Doublecheck that the subform's Data Entry property is set to No. If it's set
to Yes you will be able to add new records but not see old ones.
 
Yes, when I open just the subform all the information is there. Just when I
drag it over or try to add it to the form the contents are blank.
 
I just double checked that and the Data Entry property is set to No on the
original subform and the one that has been placed into a form.
