Openargs cause refs to subform to fail???

[TimK01]

I have a form called Jobs that has 2 subforms appearing in tabs.

The subform is called from 2 places a commabd button and a search screen

When called from a search screen we pass a job number as an open arg and in the form we do
CODE
If Not IsNull(Me.OpenArgs) Then

Dim intJobno As Integer

intJobno = Me.OpenArgs
Me.RecordsetClone.FindFirst "[Job#] = " & intJobno
End If

/CODE


When i open the form with no open args all works fine

When I open the form with an open arg references later in the code to the subforms such as
CODE
Me!Billings.Form.Recalc
/CODE

fail with "You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the property Form/Report"


This all worked fine under Access97 but has been recently converted.

Can you help explain what is happening?

TimK01,
Since [tt]OpenArgs[/tt] is a [tt][navy]String[/navy][/tt] you might try:
[tt]If Me.OpenArgs <> "" Then
...[/tt]

or

[tt]If Len(Me.OpenArgs) > 0 Then
...[/tt]

Hope this helps,
CMP
