A report with the date (from menu insert date()) on one PC works fine and displays the current date. However on another PC the same report displays #name.
I have looked at the general settting via control panel at the PC's date setting options but cannot see anything different between the 2 PC's.
Any ideas ? :confused:
Thanks
Keith

Databases that work on one PC but fail on another usually fail due to reference issues. On the failing PC, open the db and change one of the references to force Access to refresh its references collection. If you don't know what I'm talking about, search here for lots of "missing references" posts.
