Microsoft Jet engine does not recognize "

[Jy]

I am creating a report break down by area code. I use cross tab in query and
form to input the area code. Each time, the form pompt to enter the area
code. After I enter the area code, it show up the error message as "Microsoft
jet engine does not recognize " as valide frield name and expression. " The
cross tab query is as following:

PARAMETERS [Forms]![Area Code Dialog]![AREACODE] Text ( 255 );
TRANSFORM Sum(comp1.SUBS) AS SumOfSUBS
SELECT comp1.WEEK, Sum(comp1.SUBS) AS TOT
FROM comp1
WHERE (((comp1.AREA_CODE) Is Not Null And (comp1.AREA_CODE)=[Forms]![Area
Code Dialog]![AREACODE]))
GROUP BY comp1.WEEK
PIVOT comp1.COMP_CODE;

Is there anyone who can give some suggestion? Thanks.

Does the error message mention a field name that is not recognized? Are
there any weird values in the COMP_CODE field?

Error message doesn't mention a field name that is not recognized. But I
check each field. On comp1.AREA_CODE field, there are some records on
comp1.AREA_CODE value are ?? that are weird. But those records are required
to keep to get correct number to caculate the total. What should I do if this
is the problem? Thanks.

Happy Holiday.

Don't allow users to enter crappy data. If the actual value in the field is
"??" then replace the ?? with something or create your column heading like:

PARAMETERS [Forms]![Area Code Dialog]![AREACODE] Text ( 255 );
TRANSFORM Sum(comp1.SUBS) AS SumOfSUBS
SELECT comp1.WEEK, Sum(comp1.SUBS) AS TOT
FROM comp1
WHERE (((comp1.AREA_CODE) Is Not Null And
(comp1.AREA_CODE)=[Forms]![Area Code Dialog]![AREACODE]))
GROUP BY comp1.WEEK
PIVOT IIf(COMP_CODE = "??", "UNK",COMP_CODE );
