<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>This is interesting. I need to do
something sort of similar... I have an unbound text box on an unbound form
which I want to use to display memo fields that are too small to display all
their data in the controls on my main forms. To get the data out is easy -
<span class=SpellE>screen.activecontrol</span> will do it. But then if they
amend the data I need to get the new string back into the right control on the
right form. Trouble is it could be up to 3 layers deep on <span class=SpellE>subforms</span>
and as far as I can tell, to get the data back in I need to build a full
reference to the calling control e.g.
Forms!frmLevel1!frmLevel2.form!frmLevel3.form!ctrlCalling<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
