Calculating totals on a Crosstab Query

Found the problem, but can't fix it
Tracked it down to the name change of my form that has the controls and the
query that has the criteria. When I change them it won't work, even though
it is all spelled correctly, it won't recognize it.I change it back and it
will work.
Do you have any idea why the changes won't Take?
Thanks Blair

It actually says
The Microsoft Jet database engine does not recognize
'[Forms]![FdailyWhelpingReport]![Text6]' as a valid field name or
expression.

This is the sql of the qry QDailyWhelpingReport That I am using. I guess I
should have used this from the start, but I was using the other until I
got
the results I wanted so I wouldn't have to mess with the criteria until I
got it working the way I wanted.
Sorry for the incontinence
Thanks Blair

WHERE ((([98MatingRecords].[Mating
Year])=[Forms]![FDailyWhelpingReport]![Text6]) AND
(([98MatingRecords].Dead)
Like [Forms]![FDailyWhelpingReport]![Option4] Or
([98MatingRecords].Dead)=IsNull([Forms]![FDailyWhelpingReport]![Option4]))
AND (([98MatingRecords].[1st MATING]) Is Not Null));


First, make sure that you have UNCHECKed the troublesome
Name AutoCorrect feature (Tools menu - Options, General
tab). This feature seems to randomly cause strange
problems. Of more immediate importance, when you change
the name of something, it changes the name of other things
with the same name.

Then double check the names of everything in the query,
especially the name of the form. (I note that you changed
the spelling of whelp , but you also seem to have dropped
the 2 at the end.)
