report name? From where?

I have text in a sub report I can't account for.

I first created this report with a report wizard, with text boxes mostly to
list how imported data was missing certain values. Later, when I decided to
include more error conditions in the data-import report, I made this 'missing
value' report a subreport instead. Now when it prints, the word
"rDataImport" appears in the report header of the now subreport. This was
originally the name of this (sub) report, but no longer. I can't figure out
how it is printing. There is no lable or text box with this text in it, it
is not the subreport name within the containing report, and the text is
definitely being generated within the subreport.

It is not the name of the report header section, there is no property for
the report header that contains this text, why is it being printed in the
report header section of the subreport?

Thanks in advance for any help.

That sounds like the subreport control's attached label on
the main report. It's probably on top of or behind the
subreport control so you'll have to play around some to find
it. Open the main report in design view and try tabbing
through the section containing the subreport until the
offending label is selected.
 
Right you are, it was in the main report. When I dragged the subreport onto
the main report, I placed it butt-up against the left margin, and this
squished the label behind the subreport!

Thanks!
