How to change subform in a form?

J

Jenna

I have created a form in which the top portion contains
information from the main table and the bottom
portion contains information from the detail table.

Since I had already created another form for detail table,
I was wondering if I can change it to use the one I
already had.

For ex. I have Order-detail form calls the subform
detailssubform, I would like to replace it with
mydetailform.

How can it be done? Otherwise I will have to redo
everything all over in this one.

Thanks for your help!

Redo? What do you mean redo? No need for that.

Just open the form in design view and change whatever you
like. You can either change the subreport control's
SourceObject property to the name of the other form or you
can select the subreport control, delete it and drag/drop
the other form onto the form.
