Split Form (Access 2007) doesn't show on a tabbed form?...

I am using Access 2007 and I have a Split Form that is on tabbed form; but
whenever I try to view the form it doens't show the datasheet form element.

But if I open the form on its own, it will show the corresponding datasheet
form element. Does anyone know if it is ok to place a Split FOrm on a tabbed
form?. I couldn't see anything in the F1 help to say that I couldn't do this.

The way you've described it set your main form to split form and see if
that's the option your looking for.

You could also try the following to see if this get's you anywhe

Create a new tabbed form (i assume you don't mean tabcontrol but actually a
tabbed form). Place the form in design mode and drag your source directly
onto this form. This will create a subform. Set the subform to split form and
see if that's the result you are looking for. If so adjust the original
setting to the one just created.

I am also having the same problem. I have the defult view of frmPattern to
display as a split form, when frmPattern is added to another form it will not
display as a split form, Did anyone ever figure out what the problem was?

Please let me know,

Thank you!
