Do I understand your setup right that ReferenceID refers to some other
(Items?) table, and that there can be multiple records in PrintList with
the same MainID?

In this case, it sounds as if you need a main form for the Main table,
and a sub form for PrintList. Both should be linked via the MainID.
Additionally for ReferenceID, you probably want to use a list box, which
displays the names of the referenced (Items) table.

No, sorry.

Ciao
