Walter-
I need to see the structure of the two tables - at least the relevant key
fields. What is the Primary Key of one of the "Parent" tables, and what is the
Primary Key of the "Child" table?

John;
I should probably note that the data entry on the subform works BUT I cannot
figure out how to get the subforms record ID to append to the parent form. The
data is there and if I "plug in" the record ID manually into the parent forms
table (In spreadsheet mode) when I review the form view it works (but that's
seriously impractical ;-)

Currently there are 3 "parent" forms, Book, media and periodical containing data
like title, author, subjects etc.. Each "parent" form has a different table
because the inventories have different table/field structures. I am trying to
use a subform (the same subform) on all three "parent" forms containing data
such as cost ,condition, location/disposition etc.. as this data is the same
across all items in the library. So as to not duplicate all those data fields in
each table I thought I could link a "collectionInfo" table to each record in the
"Inventory" tables and thereby append only an "IDCollectionInfo" field to the
tables populating the "parent" forms. The relationship is 1 to 1 as the
collectionInfo records are specific to each inventory item.
