Need some help with a form that i have created.

On my main menu[Form] i have a couple embedded forms that return information pertaining to outstanding balances to collected.

On clicking a hyper-link button from the same main menu i can access the query and add that the balance has been collected. Once i close the query i expect that the updated form no longer shows that record now that the balance has been taken however it still shows.

If i close the DC and re-open it doesn't show, so i know its a refresh issue however not sure how i taken this being a relative novice.

Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks

You need a requery behind the after update event

me.subFormName.requery

Tried this to but still no luck.

So that you understand correctly i have a main menu form with a unbound form on it which returns information from an underlying query.

The user can from the main form open a query and make an adjustment however the changes are not reflected on the form when the query is changed.

Not sure how better to explain however appreciate any help.

Regards

OK can you upload a sample of the database, if the requery hasn't worked it maybe that the Master/Child links have to be reset to the subform.
