MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Open the sample database Northwind.mdb.
In the Database window, open the Customers table.
Click the PLUS SIGN (+) to expand the first and the second customer records.
In the first customer's subdatasheet, click the PLUS SIGN to expand the first order belonging to that customer.
On the File menu, click Print Preview. Note that the items displayed in the subdatasheet are not the ones that you saw for the first customer in the Datasheet view. They belong to a different record entirely.
