Displaying related data

Forms Designer offers two controls that allow users to display data from related tables and records.

  • Combo Box
  • Subform

You can determine which of these two controls to use by how you want users to interact with the related data.

If you want to use a control that allows users to select and interact with related data, then use a Combo Box control. See Combo Box.

If you want use a control that protects any virtual-joined data by making it read-only, then use a Subform control. See Subform.
