Linking forms and subforms

MJ
I have a database where, when I put 3 forms on one form they link fine
and auto fill in information as they should; however, when I try to use
the Tab Control form I am having trouble having to re-type information
(it isn't auto filling as it should). Any ideas?

The TabControl should be irrelevent. The MasterLink and ChildLink properties of
the subform *control* is what provides the linking behavior between the subform
and parent.
