Continuous forms on tabbed form?
I have a main form which has a tabbed control. On the tabbed control I want
to display a subform as a Continous form but even though I have set the property to Continuos form the subform shows as a single form. Does this mean that I can'tshow a Continuos Form as a subform on a tabbed main form? Thanks Tony -- Why don't my grey cells communicate with each as fast as they used to? I hate getting old!

Continuous forms on tabbed form?
Tony,
Yes, you can use a continuous subform on a tab object. What version are you using? I can't see why that would make a difference, but... The only thing I can think of is that your form is as high as the subform object itself, making it "appear" to be single. Have you tried to scroll down using the subform vertical scroll bar? Can you see other records associated with the main by scrolling down? On a single form, it's vertical scroll bar will only move up and down that form. (If the form is taller than your screen can display) On a continuous form, it's vertical scrollbar will scroll from one record to another. If... that doesn't tell us anything, you're welcome to send me just the tables, queries, and form needed to demonstrate the problem. No charge, confidentiality assured. Use the Contact function on my website (below), zip the file, and put "newsgroup" in the email subject. -- hth Al Campagna Microsoft Access MVP 2006-2009 http://home.comcast.net/~cccsolutions/index.html "Find a job that you love... and you'll never work a day in your life."

Continuous forms on tabbed form?
I do it all the time. What version of Access are you using and what OS? When
you say "I have set the property to Continuos form", what property are you talking about? TonyWilliams wrote: I have a main form which has a tabbed control.

Thanks Guys. Sorry for the delay in getting back. The problem was the I had
the main form and subform the same size as suggested. Works just fine now. Thanks again Tony ruralguy wrote: I do it all the time. What version of Access are you using and what OS?
