    Making subforms visible / invisible via a combo box

    Even when using the basic 'Forms!M_REV.Visible' = True I am getting an error that the form M_REV cannot be found. I have also used 'Forms!M_REV.Controls.Vsible = True' I get the same result. Does it make any difference if the subform is part of a TabControl ?
