Default Text from table won't display

Hi everyone, thanks for being so helpful.

I'm working on a report and included is a text box whose control
source is from the table I've queried. The actual data from the table
isn't showing up on the report when I open it, though. And it's only
this text field. Other text fields work fine and my date fields also
show up fine.

I've made sure that I included this column in the query, but nothing I
do makes the data appear.

Please help.

Set the control's border to red, do you see this in preview?
What section of the report contains the control?

The control is in the "detail" portion of the report and I can see the
border when I set it to red.

What is the Control Source property of the control and is it set to allow
growing?

Control Source is set to the column from the table that I want
displayed called "Recommendation", which is set as text. I set it to
allow the field to grow (it wasn't before) and it did not help.
