SubForm Control

SubForm

By using Subform control, user can have a complete form within the Mainform having all the properties of Mainform. Whenever there is a different section in a form we can show them up in a Subform control where user can fit more controls without making the form illegible.
Working with a Subform Control
Step 1:– Create a form having ‘Subform control’, as shown below:-

Figure 1

Step 2:– Place the controls inside the ‘Subform Control’. In properties Tab, user can set style, border, visibility, margin etc depending upon the application without affecting the MainForm. Whenever application requires a different section, one can use subform control and drag all the required controls and set the visibility of Subform to True,whenever it wanted to display.
