I need to do a Subform based off the Form
and a second SubForm based off the Subform...how do I do that?

Design them separately then drag them onto their parent form. You are
familiar with the Master/Child linking process on subforms, correct?

Just be sure that the first subform is in Single Form view - you can't put a
subform on a continuous subform or a datasheet.

But I cannot select a field on the first Subform to filter the second
subform on...

Maybe if you explain what you are trying to accomplish, someone may be able
to
help you with alternative methods to present your data.

Typically you would not do this with a Filter; if you set the Master Link
Field and Child Link Field properties of the sub-subform correctly (the Master
being the name of a field on the subform) you should get the same effect.

However you CAN indeed refer to a field on the first subform to filter the
second, if you wish to do so. What specific problem are you having? Are you
putting the second subform *onto the first subform* as a sub-subform, or
trying to put it beside the first subform (on the main form)? Even that can be
done if you wish...
