Finally...
   You should have a  Linked ID between the Parent Form and the
Subform. Typically something like

tbl_Orders Field: PKOrderID

tbl_SubformTable Field: FKOrderID, PKID

the Linked ID would be the OrderID.  Checking the properties of the
subform, you should see the linked table field to be the OrderID
