John;
The key fields for the "Parent" tables are an auto number, however I have a number field in each "parent" forms table called "idCollectionInfo" This needs the value of the subforms table Key field "IDCollectionsInfo" also an auto number field to link the 2 records together.
(sorry I use the same names I just capitalize "ID" when it is a key field)
Apparently I need some sort of query inserting that subform key field value "IDCollectionInfo" into the parent forms table receiving field "idCollectionInfo"
I don't know just how to format the query or what event on the parent form to place it into.
