When I try to create a heading in a report the & symbol does not print.
Anyone have any clue why not?

Use two ampersands (&&) to make them appear on a report....

Thank you so much! Worked like a charm. Do you know the reason I needed to add the second one?

The & character is used to underline another character in labels, button captions, etc.
E&xit would = "Exit" with an underline under the "x", denoting this as a hotkey combo (use alt + X to exit).
Two vultures board an airplane, each carrying two dead raccoons. The
stewardess looks at them and says, "I'm sorry, gentlemen, only one
carrion allowed per passenger."
