Hi

I am working on a database in Access 97 and the client want the words Profit & Loss written on a report. However when I write the text the & becomes an underscore.

Any ideas?

How do you write it, thru code, controlsource, writing in a textcontrol, label...

Sometimes, if it's just typing in a label, then just typing the ampersand twice might work.

[tt]"Profit && Loss"[/tt]
