#error
Generated a report using 'design wizard'. The report reference one of our
tables only. When the field references one of the fields in the table things are ok BUT when I change the reference to '=trim([field name])' I get the #error in the report for that field. We have been here before because we have reports that do the trim thing but don't remember what the fix is. Anyone got any ideas? TIA

TIA The name of a control cannot be the same as the name of a field in it's controls source expression. Once you add =Trim() to the control source you have created an expression. Change the name of the control to something else, i.e. txtFieldName. -- Fred Please only reply to this newsgroup. I do not reply to personal email.
