I am at a loss to find this problem. I have a diplay field I build for a Mailing Label in my app. On my PCs this shows properly, but on the users who are testing for me, the field shows "#Name?#.

1. Here is the Control Source for this field:
Code:
=IIf(Len(Nz([FULL_NAME],""))>0,[FULL_NAME] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) & IIf(Len(Nz([Company],""))>0,[Company] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) & IIf(Len(Nz([Address_1],""))>0,[Address_1] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) & IIf(Len(Nz([Address_2],""))>0,[Address_2] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) & IIf(Len(Nz([CSZ],""))>0,[CSZ] & Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)) & IIf(Len(Nz([COUNTRY],""))>0,[COUNTRY])

The fields are all present in the data.

2. Following a tip I found in the archives here, I checked the References to insure a library was not missing on their PCs. They had the same ones I had checked in the app.

Any ideas are welcome! TIA!
 
Does the DB compiles properly on their PCs ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hmmmm - are you certain that all the fields are present on your form? Could a tester have inadvertantly renamed a form field?

Yes, all fields are there. And I distribute an MDE file for the app so the user doesn't compile anything.

In order to get this out today, I ended up adding the Mail Label as a field (memo) in the data I distribute.

But if anyone else has an idea, I would like to learn what might be going wrong here.

Thanks!
