Linking Unbound Forms

11 New Member
Hi

I have the same problem as describe by kfboren. But when I try to set the LinkMasterFields & LinkChildFields on the subreports, an error says "Can't build a link between unbound forms". Am I missing something fundamental here??

Thanks for your help!

Absolutely! (sorry)

Unbound forms have no RecordSource. As the linking is done on fields found within the RecordSource, it is not possible to link unbound forms. To be honest I'm surprised you even found something to enter into the properties.

PS. Please don't hijack threads like this. I will split this into a new thread for you with a link to this one for reference, but please create a new thread in future.
