How do Searches on a Form with Subforms work?

    Hi,

    If my form has subforms within it, when a user does a ctrl-f search from the main form, their not going to get results from the subform's data.  Right? right.  Especially because the subform is displaying data from an intermediate table related to the main table.  Okay.

    So what's the best way to facilitate searches on pages with subforms?  Can I override the ctrl-f event handler and write my own vb script to handle searches?

    Ideas, Insites, Wisdom, all that kind of stuff are welcomed.  Thanks!

    Aaron:

    This is an old question so you may have answered it by now. How is your subform related to the main form? Are you linked on a particular field? If you can clarify the issue, that may generate a better response.

    Thanks,

    Sam
