Hi everybody
How open a Subform based on a Selection from 2 Combo Boxes, so after I select from Combo1, and I filter combo2 depending on combo1 which is no problem, then I need to open a subform depending on those 2.
 
How are ya adwanoy . . .

Be aware: [blue]a subform is a form embedded within another form.[/blue]

Are you talking a subform or another independent form?

For starters [blue]a subform opens automatically when you open the mainform![/blue]. In fact (and for your reference) not only can subforms be nested 3 levels, but on opening the mainform [purple]the forms open from the inner most subform out to the mainform opening last![/purple]

Considering what your after, [blue]the closest you can come[/blue] is hiding the subform and making it visible, dependent on the combo's.

[purple]Your thoughts?[/purple]
