    Renaming Reports issue

    When I change & remame a Report the object (Report) name changes in my Navigation Pane, however when I open the Report the "tab" still remains the same as the original Report name. Does anyone have any idea how to rectify my delimna?



    Thanks...

    Isn't that the name on the properties of the form?

    Wait a minute, I’m sorry I meant a Report not a Form. When I right click on the Report & click on properties it has the changed (or new) name. However with Access 2010 when I open up a Report on the "Tab" it comes up with the original Report name.

    Eg.
    I have a Report name, "Employees Hrs." With this "Employees Hrs" Report I made some changes & tried renaming the Report to “Employees Hrs 2012.” In the Navigation Pane it shows the Report for “Employees Hrs 2012” yet when I open up the “Employees Hrs 2012” Report the Tab still reads “Employees Hrs.”

    I hesitate to go & post this question in the Report Forum because I may be double posting & receive a not so friendly warning as what once already happened.

    I meant the properties of the report in design view. Go to Design View of the report, show the Properties, change the Caption of the report to whatever you want it to be. That is what gets displayed in the tab name.
