I have a report with two subforms that have distinct ID numbers. I want to seperate the ID numbers from the subform and place them in the main form. The ID numbers exist in seperate tables. Is there a way to either do this, or use a query to populate the text box/label?
 
Make a text box on the main report, put

=[SubFormNameHere]![IDFieldNameHere]

do that for each of the ID's. It will put the selected record ID in the text box.
