Special Characters?

Hi,
I am trying to put a label onto my form as a title. The title is FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis). Can anyone tell me why it won't accept the & symbol? When I switch to form view, I am getting FMEA (Failure Mode_Effects Analysis).

Thanks!
Summer

For it to display the ampersand, you need to place two ampersands in a row in the field.

Now wasn't that simple!
Thank you!!!

And as an expansion of Elana's answer, the reason you have to type in two (2) ampersands, is if you do one (1) it tells Access that the letter following it is a HOT key and can be accessed by selecting ALT + the letter.

Thanks for the info Bob! There is so much to learn with this program!
