Hi Liz,
I am having trouble understanding what you are asking ...
Do you want a field called LayerNum to have its value sequentially created when new records are added to the subform? You should store this information, not calculate it. I often put a field called Ordr (ordEr is reserved) into tables and have code to create its value automatically. Then users can rearrange things by changing its value :)
Warm Regards,
Crystal

Pros, I have a subform with an FK of ID from the PK of main form ID.
I need the subform to autonumber not the ID, but something called a LayerNum but only within the ID. That is, each ID of main record has multiple layers of sub.
So, I was thinking I could set the default value to a calculated field in a query.
SELECT Max([LayerNum]+1) AS [Next]
FROM TestSideLayers
GROUP BY TestSideLayers.ID
HAVING (((TestSideLayers.ID)=[Forms]![DSMain]![ID]));
And then have the form field default be: =[NextLayer]![Next]
However, I get that nasty #Name? business or whatever it is and it isn't working.
