Hi,
I have a form (based on TableA) with two sub forms. Each sub form is on a different page of a tab control. Each subform is based on TableB.
So when the user types in something in the first sub-form, a record is created in TableB. Then when they switch to the second sub-form, they edit that newly-created record in TableB.
This works fine 90% of the time, however sometimes when the user switches to the second sub-form, the sub-form doesn't seem to be able to see/find the newly created record, and creates a new record. On saving, an error is given because of this.
Any ideas on what causes this?
 
Do you requery in the 'On Change' of the Tab Control?
 
No I don't. I can put it in easily enough and wait for it to happen again. This is the problem, you see, the error is spurious, but I'll try that and let you know how we get on.
