You can always call it in this manner:
Forms!frmMainForm!!sbfrmName!txtSomeField

Or this way:

Me.Parent.txtSomeField = "SomeValue"
or
strSomeVariable = Me.Parent.txtSomeField

Me.sbfrmMySubForm.Form.txtIncDetID = 0
or
Me.sbfrmMySubForm.txtIncDetID = 0



I've used this in ADPs:

Me.sbfrmItemIncentive.Form.Recordset = "stpItemIncentive"

to requery:
Me.sbfrmSalesDetailByInvoiceNo.Form.Requery
