Using Access2002, an "&" in a report won't print? Why?

[Chet]

Why doesn't an ampersand which is part of a text field or part of a text box
in a report not display or print? Since the & is part of the names of a few
of our college's majors it presents a problem. I'm using Access 2002, BTW.

Chet.

Double up... && if you need two of them to show in a label. As for them
not showing in text boxes, never had that problem. What do you get if that
is entered?

Thanks, Gina. Doubling up did the trick. Otherwise I was getting a blank
character: i.e. AE or BB instead of A&E or B&B.
