I have an Access 2000 form with a subform in Datasheet view.
When I click on an item in the header of the subform (the title at the top
of one of the columns), I'd like to be able to capture the fact that I'm
clicking in the header and not somewhere in the detail section.
How can I learn this?
TIA

Datasheet view is just a view. It doesn't expose sections like that.
If you work in Continuous Form view, you can detect that the label you
clicked on is in the Form Header section.

Thanks, Allen!
My client wants to be able to order and size the columns -
I'd hate to have to program THAT functionality in Continuous forms.
I've found that I can check the y value on the MouseDown -
if it's less than 255, I'm in the "header".
I still haven't figured out the question in my other post, though.
Even if I set the application's Shortcut Menu to my custom menu, when I
right-click on the "header" of the subform, I get the default shortcut menu.
Any ideas on that one?

Nah.
Actually I rarely use datasheets, precisely because the client can resize
and hide columns. Ever had users asking where the column has gone, and how
to get it back?

Why not have the form set all columns to a certain width in the
datasheet's OnLoad event? Then if the client has the problem, they
can close and then open the form to see all the columns.
I don't use datasheets much, either.

This should be easy. I have 2 tables - CUST and SUBS, which have a 1 to

source for each is the table (not a query). It behaves wonderfully, except
I can't seem to change the layout of the subform in design view. I make

I have a subform (that is linked to a table) in a blank form.
When the table is viewed in its subform state in the form, the headings are
not user friendly.
ie. CustN
I would want it to read in the subform heading column as Customer Name
without affecting the actually field heading in the table itself..... if
that makes sense.
Any suggestions?
thanks

I am trying to create a form that allows for user entry of search terms

First a quick background on the form:
I have a form that is normally viewed in Single form mode. It has a
subform on it that is in datasheet view. The main form is for work
orders and the subform is for parts used on the work order. On the main
form I have a LaborTotal (from main form), PartsTotal (from subform)
and TotalCost (which is Labor + Parts). All works fine as is.
Now to the question:

I have a search form which contains a non-linked subform. When I fill the
criteria of my search and click the search button it returns the results in
the subform, datasheet view.
I then want to select/click on the row (record) on the datasheet and have
that record pop-up.
Any ideas?
