Hello. Please help, I am "Hands On" learning Access and running Access 2002. when I try to insert a "Subform" it says "This feature is not currently installed would you like to Install it now?" Well, yeah, fair enough but what do I do without the Disc! LOL I bought the comp with Access already installed and it didn't come with a disc :o( Any way round this please guys, all help appreciated as always :o)

You'll need to obtain the Microsoft Office software CD's to install any features that aren't installed.

No way around it...

You can still use a subform without having the feature installed. What you have to do is:

1) make sure the form u want to use as a sub form already exists
2) create the sub form box on your main form
3) When the box pops up telling u you need to install the wizard press cancel
4) right click the border of the sub form and bring up its properties box
5)In the data tab change the source object property to the name of your desired sub form

et voila, your sub form should work. I know this works because at work that feature isnt installed and i have to get round it in that way every time i make a subform
