Default Conditional Formating Issue

I have a report with 3 fields.

fldPriority, fldContractName, fldAmt (control source priority,
ContractName and Amount respectivly)

I applied conditional formatting to all three: [Priority] = 5. All is
well with fldPriority and fldContractName. But with Amount "#Name?" is
displayed. As soon as I remove the conditional formatting from fldAmt
then fldAmt is back to normal!?

Amount is not listed in the reserved words list.

Help!

Default Conditional Formating Issue

#Name means that the name supplied for a control's source is incorrect. I
can't imagine in any way, shape or form how it could be affected by
Conditional Formatting, but, of course, with Access and corruption, almost
anything is possible! I suppose we need to see what Conditional Formatting
you're doing, and whether this is CF is being implemented thru the menu or
thru code.
