Control Reference

[Brian]

I have created two forms Selector and Circuit. Selector is an unbound
form where fields are populated and there is a command button which
opens Circuit and displays information based on the input fields of
Selector. I am using an SQL statement in Circuit which contains the
following reference to Selector

Forms!Selector.A_Equip

What I have setup works wonderfully.

My problem is I now want to make Selector a subform on frmMain which
has a tab control, when I place it there the reference no longer works.
How can I fix this.

Try:

Forms!frmMain!Selector.A_Equip

or, if that doesn't work

Forms!frmMain!Selector.Form.A_Equip

Is A_Equip a control or a subroutine? If a control, Microsoft
recommends preceeding it w/ an exclamation point (!) instead of a period
(.).
