hide field in access 2003

I will simplify my problem. Hopefully you will get the idea.

I am in design view and have established 3 fields a:1, b:2, c:[a]*.
I do not want the a:1 and b:1 output to my report.

Is there any way to suppress the output of these two fields?
I thought that by unchecking the "Show" box I could do this but as you
probably know (and me now also) all that does is delete the field.

Thanks for your time.....

Ummm...

If you don't put a control on the report bound to the field, it won't show on
the report. If you're using a wizard generated report, just delete the textbox
on the report.

If you don't want the a and b fields other than for calculating c, you
probably don't need them in the query in any case!
