Column name in table with space

[XTnCIS]

I am working on someone's database that has a column called: Serial Number

When I try to reference that column in a function like DLookup: DLookup("Social Number", ...)

I get an error message saying my expression is not valid... When I try the same statement with a field that is not named with an embedded space it works fine.

Do you know how to reference a column that is named with a space?

Enclose the field name within brackets: "[name with space]"

Hope This Helps, PH.
