Problem with Report

[scottmvinovrski]

Hi Everyone,
My goal is to design a report that list on the top the report my parameter that i am inputing. Example I have different status, Feasible, Closed, Assigned, ect and I want the name that i place for my parameter to populate. Can you help?

report

If your parameter is being chosen on a form then at the top of your report place a textbox with it's source=Forms![myparameterform].[parameter]

its actually coming from a table

I created a form and tried your suggestion under the source however i am receiving a message after i enter the parameter on the report of "#Name? Can someone let me know what i might be doing wrong or a different work around?

forms

When you open the report from that form make sure the form stays open. If so, then you named the textbox data source on the report incorrectly.
