I really hope someone can understand what I am asking, as I am definitely not a well versed access god. I am creating a budgeting database, the main form of which has a subform that is not linked to the main form but instead draws it's data from a unrelated query. The problem is, the data enterred into the main form will update the query that drives the subform, but the subform will not update this information unless I set the focus on it and use the SHIFT+F9 combo. I have tried several different DoCmd.Requery options, and the subform is still not updating. If anyone has a suggestion, I would be immensely appreciative. I do not have the database completed yet to send as an attachment, but if it would help I will zip and send what I have.
