[AccessD] Closing Subform

Thank you very much for the suggestion.  Unfortunately I needed the 
'BeforeUpdate' on the subform to fire correctly before the form closed.  So 
I disabled the 'x' at the top and created an exit button on the main form 
with the following:
    Me.sfrmView.Form.Form_Current
    sfrmView.SourceObject = "frmBlank"
    DoCmd.Close

This calls the Form_Current of the subform...which fires the subform 
'Before-UPdate'...and then frm blank is just a blank form to break the 
connection between the 2 forms.  I tried sfrmView.SourceObject = "" ...but 
was told(error) cannot not set property to zero length in FormView.  This is 
why the frmBlank.  Not sure if this is the best approach...but my code fires 
in the sequence I need.  Any other suggestions are always welcome.

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
