Is it possible to set a main-form with an embedded subform to "Filter by Form", subsequently enter the desired variables in fields in BOTH the main-form and subform, and then save the resulting filter as a single query? or, do the variables entered on the main form need to be saved as its own individual query, and the variables entered on the subform saved as a separate query.
I ask because I would ideally like to take a single query, containing filter variables that apply to both the mainform and subform, and be able to load/apply it onto a blank mainform/subform.
So in short, is it possible to save, and then apply, a single query that contains filter variables from both a mainform and its subform?
thanks,
-Jason

Jason,
Is there a relationship between the Main and subform that you're speaking about?
Normally what I do when I'm wanting to filter the form based on a set of values, I normally have a list control that lists out all the items of the main table, then when I double click on a list item, then I zoom into the detail of that records children, and then have a button that will zoom out so that it can show the main table list again.
I have a relationship between the two tables linked by a common ID field.
Is this what you're wanting to do?
Let me know.
Joe P.

This should be easy. I have 2 tables - CUST and SUBS, which have a 1 to
many relationship. I created a form to show fields from CUST and a subform
to show those in SUBS. The 2 tables are related on SUBSNO, and the data
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
changes and can see them in design view but in form view it reverts back...

and add records in, then go to the next record on the main form...then
back to the previous record on the main form (the one I just added the

For a client who wants answers, but doesn't want to bother to learn Access,
I've built a cut-down query generator, where they can select fields and
criteria. I then compose the appropriate SQL SELECT statement and assign it
to a fixed query name. ( qryTemp.SQL= MySQLString)
qryTemp is the SourceObject for a subform on a form which I then open.
(Note that the query itself is the source object, not a form based
on it.)
So far, this works...

Hi,
I've a question regarding saving the data. I noticed some of my
recently-entered data mysteriously disappeared. There was nowhere to
re-locate them. Plus, those data were entered within the same week. My
colleagues and I have been cautiously avoided working on the same table
simutaneously. Any reason why the data got lost?
I appreciate your advice!

I'm having trouble applying a filter to a subform.
I create a String in a Module based on various selections on the form.
Clicking a button on the "stand alone form" that changes the filter property
string to the string from the module works fine.
As soon as I put the form on the "main form" (thereby coverting it to a sub
form) things no longer work. Of course the record source for the sub form is
no longer a table or query, but the...

I have two tables, both with autonumber primary
keys, and linked in a conventional master-child
relationship. I've created forms for both those
tables, and inserted the child table form into the
master table form as a subform. It works just as
it is supposed to, in that I can create a new master
record, and then add detail records.

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.
