field within label

Hi,

I have a field called
"Bearing from [Daughter Site] to Parent Site:"

Each record is based on Sites. I would like the report to populate the
[Daughter Site] with the current site name within that label.

Can this be done?

Example:
Record 1
Site Name: Auckland
Label: Bearing from Auckland to Parent Site:

Record 2
Site Name: Wellington
Label: Bearing from Wellington to Parent Site:

Hi Nikki,

instead of using a label, how about using a textbox control

controlSource --> = "Bearing from " & [Daughter Site] & " to Parent Site:"

If this is being done on a form and it is a continuous form, put the
calculation in the underlying recordset...

field --> SiteLabel: "Bearing from " & [Daughter Site] & " to Parent Site:"

Warm Regards,
Crystal
