Hello,

I created a form called frmPubsMainTable and a subform called frmJOINPubsMainJournalAuthorsubform. I would like the field in the main
form "FirstAuthorID" when update with data to auto-fill the"AuthorID" in the subform. <o:p></o:p>


This is my code but I keep getting this error: Compile error: Method or data member not found<o:p></o:p>

Private Sub
FirstAuthorID_AfterUpdate()

Me.frmJOINPubsMainJournalAuthorsubform.AuthorID = Me.FirstAuthorID

End Sub<o:p></o:p>


Thanks

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Hi, you can try:

FirstAuthorID_AfterUpdate()
Me.frmJOINPubsMainJournalAuthorsubform.Form.AuthorID = Me.FirstAuthorID
End Sub

I think that's how that goes - off the top of my head.

If there is a parent child relationship and you have created the relationship explicitly, it might also automatically update that ID without you having do anything else other than make sure the subform has the proper parent-child relationship defined.
