Is there a way to force the ampersand (&)to become visible in a Text Box?

My company name has an ampersand, but it shows up as an underscore, not as itself. Is there a workaround to get it to show up?

TIA
 
Duh...That was easy! :)

here I am thinking it was going to complicated code!)

Thanks!

I love this forum!!
 
Remember, cwash, that if your users export the text box to an .rtf file (or some other export formats) the double && will show up as exactly that. I've had people tell me I misspelled things! :)

Ah...I didn't think of that! :)

I'm sure after I circulate the "small" db I developed to my company I'll be getting all kinds of comments from the users...I better prepare myself! :)
