ms access subform problem

I have created a main form with a combo box (cbo_student_ev ents) that
has a drop down list for various student events. I have a subform that
displays all the corresponding data for the cbo_student_eve nts. Eg.
From the combo box, I select 'Ski Trip', the subform should display
all the Ski Trip details like location, time, etc. I have
LinkMasterField s and LinkChildFields correctly. The problem is that
the data in the subform will only diplay if I click the design view
button twice. Clicking it once, takes me into design view then
clicking it again takes me back to form view, now the data in the
subform displays.
Anyone have any ideas what I need to do to have the data in my subform
show as soon as I select the value from my combo box
(cbo_student_ev ents).
Thanks

Sounds like a problem with the events you're using. Check to see
you're using the AfterUpdate event. If that doesn't help, maybe try
putting Me.Refresh into your code when you want it to display the
subform information. If that still fails to work, you may need to
post more info about your problem...

Hi All; I need little help. I have a datasheet form. I allow user to do 'filter by selection'. My form contains a column with values. As user changes selections, I want to calculate totals. I can do this the first time the form loads.

Hi Experts! I have several forms and reports where controls get their values with 'Forms!MainForm!Control' or 'Forms!MainForm!Subform!Control' resp 'Forms!MainForm!Subform.Form!Control' which works without any problem in Acc97, 2000 and 2002, but now in Access 2003 there seem to be a problem with this. A user is working with my app, and he uses an Access 2002 MDE in an Access 2003 environment.

Hi, Ive got 3 forms, (a subform within a subform within a form) and when I refresh the outermost form, Access closes and offers to send an error report. The forms worked fine a few weeks ago, but now they cause this error in Access 2002 (Access 2000 is fine) Each of the sub forms use values from their parent forms to produce results.

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,...
