How do I check that subform has no records ?

by  WP  Posted    (Edited  )
The SQL recordset for the subform will be "SELECT * FROM subformTable WHERE childField='" & txtLinkFieldOnParent & "';"

Note I have assumed your link field is alpha-numeric and that there is only one link field.

So you just have to :

Dim rsSub as recordset
Dim strSQL as String

strsql="SELECT * FROM subform WHERE childField='" & txtLinkFieldOnParentForm & "';"

Set rsSub=Currentdb.openrecordset(strSQL)

Now to check for records :

If rsSub.RecordCount=0 then
Msgbox "No records"
Endif

rsSub.close

Set rsSub = Nothing
