Hello,

Just want to ask, if there is a way to have 3 split forms separated by tabs in 1 main form?

Not sure I get your question clearly, can you mock up a picture?

Split forms are notoriously fussy to work with and difficult to program events on correctly, you may be better with an alternative design.

My design is like i want 3 tabs, and per tab i have data sheets and filter function to search for the data records.

That is certainly possible, and doesn't sound like a split form, more like different datasheet sub-forms embedded on a main form.

By 'data sheets' do you mean forms in Datasheet view?

You want different datasource on each tab?

Filtering can be done with macro, VBA, or right click menu.

As far as I can tell, intrinsic Split form cannot be a subform.

Hi. As June said, split forms can’t be used as subforms, so you will have to simulate them instead.
