form values not inserting

pavanabatchu

Hi...
actually i am creating a form which is type of inspection sheet.in this form in the upper part i get the itemno. and display it from another form.and also i display item description,sample values,etc. but in the bottom part of the form, i need to create a list form type of form for entering inspection values.in this form there is a column,item no. which i am filling it from above.and this being a list form when i enter the others values. and storing this data in a table, the itemno. field is remaining empty.(maybe because i am not typing it).that's what is my problem now.how to fill the itemno. field in the table.help.

If there is no link between the form and the subform, or you are not setting filters before you run the list form (it wasn't quite clear from your post) then the value will not fill in because it doesn't know what to use. When there is a link or filter it implies that new records should be filled in with those values when possible.

no i am passing the value between the form and the subform thru a function.
