what I have is a form with 2 subforms(both datasheet view). now, as I edit the data in subform1, subform2 is a display of the running total of the column of data I am updating in subform1. Right now I have Me!Requery set to Ontimer every 5 seconds. Obviously, running code every 5 seconds to update a query is not very efficient, and it makes the hour glass come up every 5 seconds. This is distracting to my employee's. Is there a way to update the running total without using Me!Requery?<br>thanks in advance!

Can you be more elabourate? Because I am entering data into a subform which is in datasheet view, and it's another datasheet subform that needs updating, it doesn't reconize when I do something like:<br><br>Me!subform2.Requery<br>or<br>Forms!subform2!field.requery<br>
