Trouble Getting Value from Subform (1 Viewer)

[rekabeilla]

Hi,

I have a navigation form (that i coded, not the built in navigation form) that i placed an unbound subform on. On click in the menu changes the control source of the subform to display that specific page. I don't want the user to navigate away from the current page without saving so on the on click event for the menu buttons, i want to check to see if the subform is loaded and if it is I want to check to see if a checkbox is true. That's where i hit a wall. The first line runs through so it knows the subform is loaded to that page, BUT I think I have the syntax wrong referring to the control source. This is what I have:

If Me.NavSubForm.SourceObject = "tbl_Clinic Entry" Then
    If [Forms]![tbl_Clinic Entry].Controls!Check245 = False Then
        If 'do something'
        Else 'do something else'
        End If
    End If
End If

Code breaks on line 2, so how should this be coded?

Thank you!

Hi. Try:

If Me.NavSubForm.SourceObject = "tbl_Clinic Entry" Then
    If Me.NavSubForm.Form!Check245 = False Then
...

Hope that helps...
