When I first started database development with Access, I knew the
answer to this question, but it slips my mind now. What is the
difference in VBA between:

Me!Anything
Anything
Me.Anything
[Anything]

If I remember correctly, it has to do with the value shown on a control
versus the recordset behind a form, but cannot remember which is which.

I'm not sure, but you can test it for yourself by naming the control on
the form (or report) as txtAnything and setting the control source of
the field to Anything (which is the name of the field in your table).
Then use these 4 ways to address data on the form and see what you get,
then do the same thing again, except use the txtAnything and see what
you get. That should allow to see what gives you what.
Sorry nobody else has answered your question before now.
