reference to form

[clara]

hi there,

in the control source of a textbox control on a report ,
[froms].[myFormName].[cobControl] is typed and saved, but when opened, it
displayed [forms].myFormName.cobControl. Could you tell me the reason?

Clara

thank you so much for your help

Did you place "=" as the start of your expression? I'm not sure why you would
not copy and paste the actual control source in your posting.
Try:
=[forms].myFormName.cobControl

Did you spell everything correctly?

Hi Duane,

It is a spelling mistake.
