unbound control

[smk23]

I have an unbound control on a report which I'd like to fill on load. An "If"
statement controls the input according to a couple of conditions. Problem is,
I get an error that the control is read-only and I can't edit my control. Is
this normal for reports? Can I not fill an unbound control on report load?

Gee, Sam, since a Report doesn't have a LOAD event, No you can't fill
a control on a report using a non-existent event.

You haven't given enough useful information.

What event are you using?
What is the code are you using?
What is the exact IIf statement?
Where is the data coming from that you wish to fill the unbound
control with?
In what report section is the control placed?
etc., etc.
