Blocking form changes

Hi

I have a main form with a sub form (Subform1). The sub form only has a tab
control on it and then each tab in turn has a sub form on it. I am trying to
block one of the sub forms on the tab control, so I have tried this;

Forms![Main]![SubForm1].Form![SubSubForm1].Form.AllowEdits = False

But this has not worked. Any ideas?

Thanks

Regards

Doesn't work as in throws an error or it just doesn't
set the AllowEdits property? The syntax looks correct.

Have you tried referencing a control to see if that works?

On what event are you placing that instruction?
