Display & on a form control

[Paul H.]

Can anyone tell me how I can get a "&" to display in the
Name property of a form control?

Many thanks

Hi Paul -

In the Name field, use two "&&" to make is display correctly. When you
attempt to have an ampersand (&) appear in a form name, custom menu name or
control name, it is necessary to use two ampersands (&&).

I just double checked it in Access on my machine and it worked perfectly.

Hope that helps!
