Dear experts!

I am trying to create a sub form in MS Access 2002 on the form that is already created.
Why I am unable to use sub form Wizard option “use existing Form” while “use existing Tables and queries” option is available?
Have I missed anything?

Thank you in advance,

Iren
 
Assuming that there is at least one form other than the one you're using as a main form, the only thing I can think of is corruption of one sort or another, possibly of the subform control ot possibly of the Subform Wizard itself.

I'd try, in this order:

1) Deleting a re-creating subform
2) Creating a new, blank db and import all objects into it
3) Un-installing/Re-installing Access.

It may be possible to just re-install the Wizard, but I'm not sure about that. Maybe someone else here can be of assistance with that, if # 1 and # 2 don't fix the problem.
