Modified subform changes do not show in main form.
Hi
I went into my subform and added some labels and changed some backgrounds. I went back to my mainform to view the changes. The subform hadn't changed. In design view, the changes are visible. I deleted the subform and re-inserted it into the main form. Same problem, no change in form view, and change is visible in design view. What is going on? Thanks

Thanks It's possible that you're changing a different form than you think you're changing. Open the main form in design view; select the Subform Control (not the form within that control, but the box containing the form - click the edge of it) and see what its SourceObject property is. It may also be prudent to Compact and Repair the database just in case your form is becoming corrupt. John W. Vinson[MVP]

I just found the problem. I was using the wrong view to see the changes. I had to change from Database view to Continuous Forms to see the change. Duh!
