Using Access2002, an "&" in a report won't print? Why?
Why doesn't an ampersand which is part of a text field or part of a text box
in a report not display or print? Since the & is part of the names of a few of our college's majors it presents a problem. I'm using Access 2002, BTW. |

Chet.
Double up... && if you need two of them to show in a label. As for them not showing in text boxes, never had that problem. What do you get if that is entered? -- Gina Whipp "I feel I have been denied critical, need to know, information!" - Tremors II http://www.regina-whipp.com/index_files/TipList.htm "Chet" wrote in message ...

Thanks, Gina. Doubling up did the trick. Otherwise I was getting a blank
character: i.e. AE or BB instead of A&E or B&B. Chet "Gina Whipp" wrote: Chet. Double up... && if you need two of them to show in a label.
