I have worked on this for 21 straight days.

I cannot count the nuber of things I have done. Reload Access 97, Access
2000, even tried Access on Vista and am currentlly running Offiice 2002.

I have rebuilt my database about 25 times.

Still get the same message.

I tried firing the instruction with a command button - Failed.
Tried on Get Focus - Failed
Tried on Current Event - Failed
Tried on Activate Event - Failed.

Below are three commands I have used.

Dim strUniv As String

strUniv = Me!UNIVCODE

' Me!TextUV = DLookup("[UvName]", "UNVRSTY", "[GCUVCDE] = " &
strUniv)
The above code fails.

Original Code

Me!TextUV = DLookup("[UvName]", "UNVRSTY", "[GCUVCDE] = " &
Forms!CarolV!UNIVCODE)

This code fails.

Me!TextUV = DLookup("[UvName]", "UNVRSTY", "[GCUVCDE] = 'WYO'")

As a test the above code works!

Any Ideas are welcome.

Thank You in Advance

The difference between the one that works and the others is
the apostrophes. To put them in the other ones,try using:

Me!TextUV = DLookup("UvName", "UNVRSTY", "GCUVCDE = '" &
Forms!CarolV!UNIVCODE & "' ")
 
Thank You, It Works.

I could not find a single example that showed me what you did. I understand
what I was doing wrong now.

Hope you have a great Halloween!
