How many form nesting levels?

Hi all,

How many levels of form nesting will Access 2000 allow (via Child objects)?

I've made a simple database with a main menu form with command buttons that
open the chosen forms
in its 'Child0' subform container. The opened form contained in 'Child0'
intern has a dropdown combo box which allows the user to select the record
which will then be the row source for its own 'Child1' source object
(another form). This form also has a subform container, 'Child2'. 'Child2'
hosts a datasheet form which is linked to its parent
form in 'Child1' by a common ID field. This parent / child relationship is a
simple one to many and is linked in the
relationship diagram. The datasheet will show records that were entered in
the table itself but not allow entry of new records from within the
datasheet. If attempted the screen flickers a little and very occasionally
this message will appear 'Update or Cancel Update without AddNew or Edit'.
The focus is always sent stubbornly back to the first record in the
datasheet. Any ideas?

Sorry if this makes no sense.
