Default Auto-fill Subform Reference

Hi,

I have a subform in a main form.
When I create new records in the subform I would like the Subform.
[Issue Ref] to autofill with the MainForm.[Ref]
It sounds quite simple, but ive been bustin my brains trying to get it
to work with no success.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Check out LinkChildFields and LinkMasterFields in the help file. Set
these properties and that behavior is automatic. If you drop a subform
on a form while the control wizard is on, it will help you set the
values.
