So if I want to reference a control (like a text box) on a sub form, from the CBF of the parent form, how should I do this.

me.SubForm.SubControl gives me an error.

thanks justin

+2  A: 
Me.SubformControlName.Form.SomeControl

Be sure to use the name of the subform control, not the form contained - they are often the same, but not always.

For those who use ! instead of . that would be Me!SubformControlName.Form!SomeControl.
