Ms Access #name In Report
Hamilton, ON, Canada Posts: 85 Thanks: 16 Thanked 2 Times in 2 Posts #Name? Error, text box can not find reference I created a text box with a function for
#error Access
the control source =[Location]*2 where [Location] is a field on the same form (right beside this text box). I get this error in the text box #Name? I know this field exists, it's right beside the text box. Funny thing is it worked yesterday. Any ideas? Did I hit a switch or an option that disable functions???

Reports with unbound fields #Name? error P: 16 beat1078 I have a report that I create using unbound text boxes to link to an open #name error in excel 2010 form. When you click on a cmdbutton on the form the report is supposed to print out #type access information from the form. It works fine until I close the database and restart it. That is when I receive the #Name? error. Nothing that I have access field list tried works to resolve the issue. My text box names do not include references to the information I am requesting in the control source (txtNme for field name and =reports![ReportName]![FieldName] for control source) If anyone can help I would greatly appriciate it. --Jason http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=237483 Jul 22 '06 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 3 Replies 100+ P: 179 comteck This can be caused when the name that you supplied as the source of the control's value is not valid. You use the ControlSource property to specify the source of the control's value. For example, you might have misspelled the name, or the source might have been renamed or deleted. You may also see #Name? in a control if you place an expression in the control's ControlSource property and you insert a space https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/514816-reports-unbound-fields-name-error before the equal sign that starts the expression. Make sure that all the fields specified in your ControlSource actually exist in the underlying table or the RecordSource.. As well, if you're using an expression in the ControlSource, make sure there's an equal sign in front of the expression. Hope this helps. comteck Jul 22 '06 #2 reply P: 16 beat1078 Comteck, I triple checked my expression in the controlsource. It reads exactly as this: =Forms!frmInputForm![PERSON SSN] No space in front of the equal sign. I even used the expression builder to make sure I didn't mistype anything. When I start a new report and just put one unbound box in and use this control source everything works until I close access and then open the file again. That is the only thing that triggers this and then it will not work again. It prints with the #Name? on the printout as well so I know it is just not in print preview that I am seeing this. I also have the form open while I am previewing this report so the data it is supposed to access is right there. I am all out of ideas. --Jason Jul 24 '06 #3 reply P: 16 beat1078 To all that contemplated this post: I thank you for your thoughts and to comteck for your assistance. My problem did not exist with my unbound text box source controls. The problem was my loading and unloading of forms. I have two forms, both tied to tables. One form opens up first and when the user cl
