Text box and Rich Text box dont retain values 1

[barnard89]

Hi

I am using Access 2000
I am creating an Access Form
In the form , I have a text box(unbound)
and an RichText Box Control(ActiveX control) .
The text is display State Name and the
ActiveX is to give the State description

In the Form design, I gave text to the Text Box and
Rich Text box as "NEW JERSEY" and " This is Garden State"
respectively

But in the run time of the Form I see the text value of both
textbox and Rich Text box as " #Name? "

How can I avoid this .
How can I have the values
"NEW JERSEY" and " This is Garden State"
in the Form Run time also

Please suggest

I don't know about the ActiveX control, but to persist the value in the unbound textbox,
set the Control Source property to:
="NEW JERSEY"

dont forget the equals sign.
