Binding a text box to an expression

P

Public

Hi,
I want to bind a text box (containing a hyperlink) to an expression. I don't
want to include the field in the form's field list. I just want a way to be
able to bind the text box to an expresion. (btw my expression is taking some
values from the same form).
I have used Control Source propert but I only see "#Name?" in the text box,
any ideas?

Regards

#Name means that Access can't resolve (make sense of) the expression you're
using for the Control Source.

Did you start your Control Source entry with an equal sign?

Did you accidentally enter a space before the equal sign?

I'm also a little confused about the textbox you're trying to bind here also
having a hyperlink. Perhaps a little more explanation would help us help you.

Thanks but just to elaborate things. I want to display a field from a query
that is not the form's query (some external query) that is why I have to put
= sign at the beginning. Moreover, I have made sure that the Control Source
also doe not containg any spaces before = sign.

Any ideas?
