[Solved] How to find selected record in a subform?

[ptoye]

I have a fairly simple form with a sub-form. The main form has a query to display a number of records, and the subform extracts some of those records into controls for editing etc.

What I want to do it to put buttons on the form to perform various operations. But I can't find out how to get to the selected record. XRayTool doesn't give any properties or methods that I can see which help me. Am I missing something trivial, or is this a really difficult thing to ask?

Hello

Your question is not clear but I assume you mean a record in a gridcontrol. Even if you work with a gridcontrol there is only one current record in your form. You can only access the current record in your form.

Of course you can. I was as thinking I should be able to get the record selected in the subform query. But if course I can't. Thanks. Silly me.

When you are not a programmer it is better to avoid macros and use the tutorials and examples you can find here:
