Hi Raul from your description it is very unclear what you are trying to do. First we need to know what information is on the first form, second unless you are trying to do a subtotal of all orders in the subform there is no real need for you to create a subform. Now if you are trying to create a subtotal form for all records, you will have to set it up in the record source of that subform with group by: 1. Right click on an empty space on the subform 2. Click on properties 3. Choose your table(or query) which is the record source of the main form. 4. Select Payment and items(or what ever you are trying to calculate). 5. Press the group by button 6. In totals instead of group by choose sum. 7. Exit and save 8. Now when you will select the control source you will see "sumofpayment" etc... just select them for each textbox. 9. To create the third text box you will have to use the Expression builder and just do [textbox1]-[textbox2] * for some reason the nz function does not work in this case. I hope that helped you I will be able to give you a better answer if you give me more details... Let me know what happend Good luck Daniel

What is the difference between auxiliary, action, and linking verbs?

hi amanda.
What is the difference between auxiliary and linking verbs? Remember that every sentence must have both a subject and a verb to be complete. Alinking verb is quite different from an action verb in that it doesn't actually express action. ... An auxiliary verb, also referred to as a helping verb, is one that is the part of a verb phrase that helps the main verb.

List of all linking verbs

Here is a list. Does it contain them all? I wouldn't know. Is the list printable? That is your problem.
You can ignore the definition at the beginning. You can ignore the reference (at the end).

Linking verb = copula. The most common is be
Here is a definition
A verb has copular complementation when it is followed by a subject complement or a predication adjunct and when this element cannot be dropped without changing the meaning of the verb.
Copular verbs fall into two main classes, according to whether the subject complement has the role of current attribute or resulting attribute.
The most common copular verbs are listed below
Current: appear, be, feel, look, seem, smell, sound, taste.
Resulting : become, get, go, grow, prove, turn.

View Reports

Hi, There a couple of different way you could do this and I have put two lots of VB code below that you can modify and use. Firstly you create the Combobox list by choosing the option that you will type the values yourself, you then type in all your report names on each line. After that you can then go to the VB code editor and paste my code in and modify it by changing my report names, (Customers) etc to your report names. Make sure you choose the Combobox and the On_Click option in the VB editor to paste the code into.  I like the first method better which checks the value of the Combobox and then opens the corrosponding report in the maximised form. The second method does the value check before running an assigned macro to open each report. With this you must first assign macros to each report in Access.  Remember each of these bits of code must be placed between the "Private Sub" heading and the "End Sub" ending, and change the "Combo23" name to reflect your combobox too. If you need a hand just email me.

First Method
 
If Combo23.Value = "Customers" Then
    DoCmd.OpenReport "Customers", acViewPreview, acWindowNormal
    DoCmd.Maximize
   
ElseIf Combo23.Value = "Customers 1" Then
    DoCmd.OpenReport "Customers1", acViewPreview, acWindowNormal
    DoCmd.Maximize
   
ElseIf Combo23.Value = "Customers 2" Then
    DoCmd.OpenReport "Customers2", acViewPreview, acWindowNormal
    DoCmd.Maximize
   
End If

Second Method
 
If Combo23.Value = "Customers" Then
   DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro1"
   DoCmd.Maximize
ElseIf Combo23.Value = "Customers 1" Then
    DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro2"
    DoCmd.Maximize
ElseIf Combo23.Value = "Customers 2" Then
    DoCmd.RunMacro "Macro3"
    DoCmd.Maximize
End If

Restict closing the main form when some controls on the subform are empty

Hi there. I didn't notice this was so old until I had already worked on it for some time. Did you get this the way you want it? If not, I suggest either using a BeforeUpdate control to ensure the condition is met that the subform contain data, or validate the particular field(s) with isnull. Thanks for posting back if you still need help, or otherwise rating FixYa!
