Subform tab order

I have a main form with four fields that I tab thru and
then I would like to tab into selected fields in a sub
form. I have already set the tab order of the subform in
it's own design view, and it works there, but I can't get
the tab to move from the main form to the subform, it
just returns back to the first field of the main form.
When I select tab order from the view menu, it shows my
four main form fields, then the name of my subform; no
subform fields from which to choose. How can I get the
tab to move from the main form to the sub form?

Check that the subform control on the main form has the tab stop property
set to yes. Also check the Cycle property for the main form.
