The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Trying to set the recordsource for a subform, getting "Invalid use of property" error?

Asked by hbender in Access Forms, Microsoft Access Database

Tags: , ,

I have an ubound main form (frmTest1)
on this form I have a Tab Control with three pages (tabMainTab: pagOne, pagTwo, pagThree)
on each page I have a subform (subTest1, subTest2, subTest3)
each subform has a container (cntTest1, cntTest2, cntTest3)

Initially, I have set the recordsource for each of the subforms to three tables that have a many-to-one relationship:   Issuer > Facility > Tranche  [ie each issuer has at least one facility, and each of these facilities has at least one tranche].  Specifically, subTest1 recordsource is tblIssuer, subTest2 recordsource is tblFacility and subTest3 recordsource is tblTranche.

I am trying to alter the recordsource as the user changes pages of the tab control, but I am getting the error "Invalid use of property" and the VB editor highlights '.RecordSource'  as the problem.  Any ideas on what the problem might be?  ThanksStart Free Trial
