Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
When you preview a form that contains a subform, the subform area is blank.
However, you can see the subform control when you open the main form in
Design view.
CAUSE
If you have a subform that does not contain any data, the subform
appears in Form view with the structure only. However, no part of the
subform is visible when you preview the form.
This behavior also occurs if the DataEntry property of the subform is set
to Yes (or if its DefaultEditing property is set to Data Entry in versions
1.x and 2.0). When you preview a form, you are opening it; because
the subform is opening in Data Entry mode, it does not contain any data.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
