Not really. Think about it: suppose you have the same record open on a
form and on a subform. You change the value of FieldA on the form from
1 to 10, and change the value of FieldA on the subform from 1 to 5.

What is the correct new value of FieldA?

I certainly can't tell, and Access can't either! You can only have a
record open for editing ONCE at any one time.

Could you explain why you have this rather unusual arrangement? What
are you trying to accomplish?
