set textbox value

[citychap26]

Hi All,

I want to set the value of a textbox at runtime using the reports open event.

I did the following

me.txtBox.value = "XXXX"

and it returned a 2448 error you can't assign a value to this control.

Is there a way of doing this without converting the textbox to a lable and doing

me.lable.caption = "XXXX"

Cheers

SK

Use a different event, Page, say, or Format for the section.

Hi

Thanks for the answer I used the format event, I actually found out a minute after posting (as per normal!!!)
