I have a form with a command button that prints a report. I need the user
to input a couple words of text on the form that needs to appear on the
report (as a way of customizinig the report). How do I pass what they enter
in the form, to the report? (It is not one of my data fields in any table,
and doesn't need to be.)

Thanks in advance.

Just place a text box on the repot, and have it reference the text box on
your form.

So, the user in the form types some text into a un-bound text box called
MyNotes

And, in the reports header, you place a text box, and for its source you go:


=(forms!YourFormName!MyNotes)
