subdatasheets not available on a subform - why?

I have created a form with a subform that displays the results of a query in
datasheet
view. I'd like to be able to expand subdatasheets for each record listed in
the subform datasheet.

The query itself has the "+" signs that allow me to see the subdatasheets.
However, when I view the same query via the subform, the "+"s are missing.
How can I get the "+"s to appear in the subform datasheet?

AFAIK Access Limitation, only one level of continuous/datasheet
allowed.

I have a form with a subform (normal) that itself has a subform (datasheet). I can't get a delete command button to work with the following code. It says "delete not available now". Any suggestions?

After developing an MDB in Access 2003 on WS03, then making it into an MDE and deploying it on a WinXP box with Access 2003 installed, I get this error: Function is not available in expressions in query expression SELECT IIf(IsNull(),"", & Chr(13) & Char(10)) & IIf(IsNull(),"", & Char(13) & Char(10)) & IIf(IsNull(),"", & Char(13) & Char(10)) & IIf(IsNull(),"",] & IIf(IsNull(),"",", ") &

Hi, I am working on a genealogy form. The only table (so far) lists everybody in the family, one record per person. Each record has an autonum ID. The parent form (frmMainForm) displays the data in each record, which includes the ID of the father and the mother (who also have records in the table). One record per form. I have a Tab Control in the form, and in one of the tabs I have a subform (sfmSiblings) in which I wish to list...

Hi, I have two very similar forms each with a subform. The main form gets a few fields from the user and passes this back to a query that the subform is bound to. The requery is done when the user enters the last qualifying field on the main form. In one case this works fine, the subform shows the data the user wants to update -- which means showing all the data put in previously (ie showing this via the requery and the continuous...

I've figured out how to insert subdatasheets into tables and queries - just open the table/query, select subdatasheet from the Insert menu, and play around with the Link Child/Link Master fields until you get what you're looking for. Easy enough. But how do I use these in my forms? I tried dragging a table with a subdatasheet directly onto a form in design view, but when I opened the form, no little crosses. I don't want to give my...

I've got a form that currently has a list box used to "find a record on my form" but the list in it is far too long and consists of fields of repeating data. Is there a way of creating a subform to do the same job that is in datasheet view with a collapsible subdatasheet? The main form is based on a table consisting of dates, events and venues (plus a lot of other guff not needed to explain this little problem). Each record has an ID,...

All, Since upgrading to Access 2003 from 2002, I've noticed that all of the linked table subdatasheets I had set up in 2002 with simple relationships are now not working in 2003. Since the majority of what I do with Access is simple inserts and edits, having to bounce around multiple tables and "find" the rows based on the previous table's PK in a list of thousands, makes 2003 completely unusable. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
