Data bound to a report

[DS]

Hi,

I have a table bound to a report (recordsource property set). In the 'detail' proc of the report, I want to know the contents of a field (not used in the report display anywhere) in the current record being formatted for print.

How can I do this without setting a control on the report to this field.

Thanks
DS

Why are wanting to do this? Are you wanting to use the value in a calculation on the report? I this is true, then base the report on a query instead of the table. You can then build expressions in the query to calculate the results in the query itself.
