Michel,

Thank you for your follow-up, it's good to know. Here's
a further question along the line, I'm posting a Design
View of the FORM in question, what I intend to do is to
figure out all the subfunctions contained in subforms etc
from this View or other means via the FORM, any further
guidance would be much appreciated, the URL for the
screen capture of the FORM is,
http://68.32.63.205/AccessFORM/Form1.GIF

TIA

Don
