The object doesn't contain the Automation object

I am trying to create a calculated text box with the control:

= ITEMDESC.IMDESC & " " & ITEMDESC.IMEXTDESC

When I go to display the report the following error appears:

The expression On Open you entered as the event property setting produced
the following error: The object doesn't contain the Automation object
'ITEMDESC'.
However, if I list these two fields separately I have not problem.

What I am trying to accomplish is to combine these two fields eliminating
the trailing spaces from the first field. The file is being accessed from an
ODBC driver.
 
Are you sure you need to include the "ITEMDESC." in the control source? Does
your report's record source contain more than one field named IMDESC and
IMEXTDESC?
