adding text to a form control

[skyline]

Hey guys,
Im sorta new to access and im trying to accomplish the following,

I am trying to make the =Now() control in the footer to read: Prepared by so and so on Current date (the current date being updated by the =Now() function.
how would I go about adding the additional text to the control?

Try:
= "Prepared by so and so on " & Now()

Try:
= "Prepared by so and so on " & Now()
