i have a property called BIsSubForm declared as boolean on a form.
this form will be used as a stand alone form and as a subform.
when it is a subform i want to assign the mIsSubForm public variable
the True value.
how do i reference it from the on load method of the owner form.

if there is VBA code in your subform you can reference to it from the main
form like this :

Form_YourFormName.mIsSubForm.value = True

If there is no VBA code in the subform you can add something like this in
the OnLoad event :

dim x as byte

x = 1

Should do the trick!

i did it this way:

If Me.Parent.Name = "frmAddSpecimens" Then mIsSubForm = True
