Good news...you can have more than one subform on a form.&nbsp;&nbsp;As a matter of fact, your subform can itself have a subform.<br><br>Why don't you try to add another subform and post with any problems you have.&nbsp;&nbsp;We are all glad to help.<br><br>Kathryn

Kathryn<br><br>That is indeed good news and will also teach me to make absolute statements on subjects i know little about<br><br>the problem i have is that i have one primary customer details table with 5 sub tables for information that only get filed in if the customer takes a particular product.<br><br>additionally one of the sub table/forms will have a further sub table/mform with payment details. (you may have seen my earlier post about totalling fields in the same table)<br><br>this is my first project you guys have been fantastic in helping me so far. <br><br>alex

AlexUK,<br>&nbsp;i think it's better to create a TabControl and put each subform in a page, that will make it easy to show up all the details you want to show...<br><br>i hope that will help, and let me know <p>Mohamed Aly<br><a href=mailto:samara_79@hotmail.com>samara_79@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
