Sub Forms question

[Santacarl]

Hello All,

Is there a way to add more than 1 subform to a main form? I have a couple of tables I would like to include as subforms under my main form entries and while I can get 1 subform entered with no problem I can’t figure out if it’s possible to add more.

Thanks

SC

He, you can do so:

• open your form in Edit mode, open Form navigator and make right click on MainForms > New > Form.
• make right click on it and rename NewSubForm
• make right click on NewSubForm > Properties
• on tab Data of window Form Properties choose Table as Content type and your add table as Content
• complete fields Link master file and Link slave field
• open the window Add fields
• make click on More controls > Table control and draw a new grid
• complete the Table element wizard

Now you have a new added sub form.

If this helps then please tick the answer ()

I tried that but at step “complete fields” I would like to link the slave field to another (the first 1 created by the wizard) slave field but am only given the option to go from master file to slave field… Is there a way around this? I see no option to change the master file to anything different.

Can I help you with a screenshot?

I have attached it to the main answer.

in the form navigator, the various forms will appear in a familiar object tree. Click and drag the SUBFORM objects to be children of the desired subform, and click and drag controls to be on the right SUBFORM as well.
