    Cannot input info

    Hi, I am a newbie to Access, and hope that someone can help me from time to time as I (hopefully) become a little wiser. Waiting for Access book to arrive, but X,mas post will slow it down methinks.



    My problem at the moment is that I cannot input into some fields because they have #Name? displayed. How do I remove this so I can input?

    Access displays #Name? in a control when the name that you supplied as the source of the control's value is not valid. You use the ControlSource property to specify the source of the control's value. For example, you might have misspelled the name, or the source might have been renamed or deleted. You may also see #Name? in a control if you place an expression in the control's ControlSource property and you insert a space before the equal sign that starts the expression.
