The form who of the relative pronoun is used as the subject of a verb. Whom is used in writing as the object of a verb or a preposition and cannot be the subject of a finite verb.

If the answer is the subject of the sentence, who is needed. Ex. Who is going to the party? Bob is going to the party. (Bob is the subject of the sentence.) Ex. Whom are you taking with to the party? I am taking Joe to the party. (I is now the subject of the sentence, and Joe is the direct object.)
