I'm trying to refer, using vba, from my one form to a subform many levels below:

My current structure is:

Navigation Control Form > NavigationSubform > Custom Form1 > Navigation Control Form > NavigationSubform > Custom Form2

From a button on 'Custom Form 1' I'm trying to reference 'Custom Form 2' to perform a requery (ie. ___ [CustomForm2].Requery) on 'Custom Form2'.

I have tried for days to resolve this and this is my last resort does anyone have any suggestions for the syntax.

Thanks in Advance

Thanks, but I get 'Microsoft Access can't find the field 'CustomForm2' referred to in your expression. Seems to think it's looking for a field not a form?

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks

Don't use the form's name but the name of the control hosting it.
