[AccessD] A2K: Something new

Just a WAG
but look for timers firing on the subs - even on the main
I have had odd things happen to me when timers are firing.
Especially quick timer intervals like 350 or 100
Good luck

for an Extreme Programming term?) some of the data entry forms I've run into something odd.

> One of the main data entry forms (key field ChildID) has a subform which contains a Tab object. Each of the tabs on this subform
contains a sub-subform. While getting familiar with the workings of the program I noticed that one of the sub-subforms did not have
the proper linking fields set up.

question also has only ChildID as the linking field...but the key field for the sub-subform's table is FreeFormID. ChildID is a
foreign key in that table.

shows the following:

[running]. When I close the dialog box the VB window flashes and [running] disappears from the title bar.

then I see a Microsoft Access dialog box with the following message and OK button:

the dialog box the VB window flashes and [running] disappears from the title bar.

> So I tried deleting the sub-subform and placing it on the tab page again. When I've finished using the subform tool to place the
object on the tab page, I get another dialog box labeled "StatsTracker" (the name of the application):

Registry to verify that the entries you need are listed and available.

> I click OK and I see the subform object on the tab page. I can assign the Source Object property, but when I go to Link Master
Fields I get the "Object variable or With block variable not set" message.
