Can I change the recordset on-the-fly for a form in an Access project (.adp) using the method described in the kb http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;281998 ? And still be able to assign the rowset to list and combo boxes? It's my understanding that SQL Server will only supply one firehose connection per instance, so I presume that these assigned recordsets, even if assigned to a listbox, would need to be keyset cursors. I was wondering if I could re-use connections in a way where, instead of setting the recordset in the open property of the form, somehow requery the form with Dim cn As ADODB.Connection Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset 'Use the ADO connection that Access uses Set cn = CurrentProject.AccessConnection 'Create an instance of the ADO Recordset class, and 'set its properties Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset With rs Set .ActiveConnection = cn .Source = "SELECT * FROM Customers" .LockType = adLockOptimistic .CursorType = adOpenKeyset .Open End With 'Set the form's Recordset property to the ADO recordset Set Me.Recordset = rs Set rs = Nothing Set cn = Nothing Could I synchronize updateable subforms using the Mirror method in the ADH? Any comments, suggestions appreciated, Bill Thompson Washington State
