Key Concepts

-
Main Form
The main form is the primary user interface component that displays summary or key record information. It typically presents the data from a main or parent data source, offering an overview of the subject record and often containing controls for file navigation or record selection.
Subform
The subform is an embedded component within the main form that displays related detail data. It is used to show records from a related data source that are connected to the record shown in the main form, often representing items such as transactions, details or child records associated with the primary record.
Master-Detail Relationship
This concept describes how data in the main form (the master) and the subform (the detail) are related. The main form displays the primary, high-level information, while the subform shows additional, detailed records that correspond to the selected main record, ensuring data integrity and contextual relevance.
