I have a label on my form that when clicked prints a report based on the current record displayed on my form. The report is based on a query. The query has the following as the criteria: [Forms]![Completed_PAs]![ID]. The code for the label on the form is: DoCmd.OpenReport "All_Request_Letters_Report", acViewPreview. It works fine when you only open the subform. When you open the parent form, and the subform is loaded, I get an enter parameter value when I click the label. I was thinking I would have to do something with setfocus to the subform but I'm not quite sure. Any help can be appreciated.

Welcome to UA. You've got several options depending on whether the subform is ever opened on it's own, or it is always a subform.
If it's always a subform, you can just change your reference in the query, or remove the query filter and put a where clause in the OpenReport line.
Query Filter: [Forms]![MainFormName]![Completed_PAs].[Form]![ID]
or
DoCmd.OpenReport OpenReport "All_Request_Letters_Report", acViewPreview, ,"[ID] = " & Forms!MainFormName!Completed_PAs.Form!ID

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately it didn't work however, it did get me thinking in the right direction. The finished working code is simply:
DoCmd.OpenReport "All_Request_Letters", , , "[ID]=" & Me![ID]
I thank you for your help. It would have been a while before I really turned down that avenue. Thanks again
