text boxes all = null?

[tkecowboy]

I have a simple form with several text boxes. I type info into the boxes and click the save button on the form. As I try to populate the variable from the form control I am getting an error that tells me all the textboxes are null, even though I have entered info. I simply try this:

dim Historyproblem1 as string
Historyproblem1 = me.histprob1

when I hover over the "me.histprob1" code it even shows null. What's up with this? Thanks.

That seems very odd. My first guess is that you're using the wrong control name (using the name of the label instead of the text box for instance). Try creating a test button that sets the value for your textbox.

For instance:

Me.histprob1 = "This is a text."
