Master/Child Links

Is there a way to have a subform linked to the master form and not have it
embedded into the master form?

No, not as a subform. A form used as a subform is identified in a subform
control that is on the main form.

What is it you are trying to accomplish. Maybe we can come up with some
other ideas to help.

It wouldn't be a subform, then. But it's possible to create linked
forms, which use a little code to keep one form in sync with the other.
The Form wizard will even create such a pair of forms for you, if you
ask it nicely.

Actually I put them on the form under tabs and it seems to be working great.
I just need to know if there is a way to have one tab read the other. On the
first tab it will automatically populate a report name based on what is put
in the main form. Once that is autopopulated I want to know if there is a
way to autopopulate something on the other tab?
