&lt;I need to add a subform to an existing form.&gt;<br />
Well then this is not what &quot;Subform in New Window&quot; would do anyway...<br />
So I am a bit confused here...<br />
Subform in New Window, will open a subform &quot;In Design View&quot; in a new Window, not add a subform to an existing form.<br />
<br />
If you simply need to add a subform to a form, use what MX posted above, or simply click the Subform tool (While in design view of the main form) to add a subform<br />

My appology for any confusion. <br />
<br />
I can add a subform to my main form - this is not problem.<br />
<br />
The problem was that some DB information on another table is not always required by the user.<br />
So a 'pop-up' form would have been tidier.<br />
<br />
I assumed that 'subform in new window' would do that.<br />
<br />
I have successfully created a form in another window but this may have raised other issues for me. But I will leave them for a different post.<br />
<br />
Thankx

I need to add a subform to an existing form.<br />
I’m not using any pivot tables.<br />
There are no objects on my form that are highlighted.<br />
‘Use Control Wizards’ is active (orange).<br />

But the ‘Subform in New Window’ tool is grayed out and don’t work.<br />

What can cause this?<br />

Subform tool grayed out.
