Hidden text

[Dan @BCBS]

A report has a Text Box that gets populated with data when the report is run.
When I look at the repor tin Design View there is no data. The test box
just says Unbound, the properties show me nothing except the name of the text
box: txtParagraph2.. Any idea how to update this hidden text????

Thanks

In design view, what would you expect to see in the text box? Even bound
controls don't contain any data until the report runs.

Well let's see, maybe there could be code in the form of the control source!!!

But there is no code and the Text box gets populated with data.

That would be why I have posted this question!!!

Check the code in the Report OnPrint or OnFormat event of the section where
this text box located in, mybe there is code that put the values in the text
box when the report runs

Something like
Me.[TextBoxName] = SumValue

I hope that what you mean
