Set SubDatasheet to None in all tables

Speaking about subdatasheets, Allen Browne said, "Clearly, this is not a good idea and may have unintended consequences in applications imported from earlier versions. Worse still, there are serious performance issues associated with loading a form that has several subforms where Access is figuring out and collecting data from multiple more related tables."
http://allenbrowne.com/bug-09.html" rel="nofollow - http://allenbrowne.com/bug-09.html

I have modified Allen's code that turns off all subdatasheets to provide a message box with counts at the end, and to allow an error instead of checking if there is a subdatasheet property (using more) before changing it.


Public Sub SetSubDatasheetNone()
