| re: Criteria For Subform Combobox Rowsource
Leave the RowSource of the ComboBox on the SubForm set to "" until the
AfterUpdate event of the ComboBox on the main form. Then:
Me!SubFormControlName.Form!ComboBoxName.RowSource = YourQuery (or
"Your SQL")
Replacing my dummy names with your real names of the SubFormControl
and the ConboBox.
