Assign values to text box in report page header

[xplo5iv]

Hi

I'm using the code

 Me.Controls(txr) = rst("Work Type")

in a continuous form, which works fine. (txr is a string with the text box name.)

When I try to repeat the process on a report for printing, it gives the error "You can't assign a value to this object"

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in Advance

Jonathan

Thanks for the pointer, I made the mistake of putting it in the on open event. As the rest of my code was there I've changed them to labels, so they work now, but I'll know for future, too

Thanks
