Hi,

I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me out with the following
problem i have.

In the Access report, i have a textbox whose control source has the
following value in it.

="Student ID: " & Forms.EditStudForm.TB_studID & " Student Name: " &
Forms.EditStudForm.TB_FirstName & " " & Forms.EditStudForm.TB_LastName

When running the report, i can see all that in the report. However, when
printing it out from a printer, it read "#Name?"

I got confused as it appears all right in the report but not in the printout.

Thank you in advance
 
When you print the report after previewing, Access will read the values from
the form again. If it worked the first time but fails the second time,
chances are something has happened to the form in between. For example,
could the form have been closed?
