Try Using eg label name Customers & Other Rejects
try Customers && Other Rejects
labels OK dont use it in a field
somewhere in MS Support you will find info on this
The & is a special character. In a label or in a button caption it designates the character that follows as a shortcut key (will show an underscore). Type Alt+character to execute button Click event.
If you want the literal character & to display must double it.
Don't know why MS didn't fix it so labels don't treat the & as a special character.
