I am using a command button to take a form and print it as a report. I have
text boxes get typed in in order to fill out the form. However when i type
text in the boxes it does not show up when i print it as a report. How do i
get text that i type in to show up when i print it as a report. Thanks

Why wont the screw unscrew when I keep beating it with this hammer?

Forms are not for printing. Reports are for printing.
Create a report that provides the information you want, and filter it based

That is basically what the button is doing. It takes the current record in
the form into a report and prints off the report but it does it all
automatically. So it is printedas a report but the form does not send the
text that is typed manually into the textboxes to the report for printing.
The box remains blank on the report

Change the controlsource for the textfield on the report.
=Forms!MyForm!MyControlname

Did you try prying the screw out with the crowbar?
