Subject: [AccessD] Using SET and Variable control names

Hi folks,

Friday and brain is fading... urrrgh

I have a line of code like this

[Forms]![ITFCT_frmRptPeriodSummary].[ITFCT_frmRptSubPeriodSummary_Opex].
[Form].txt4_1_P1.ControlSource = "=" & dblValue

Firstly what I want is to make this nice and compact like this:

Set
[Forms]![ITFCT_frmRptPeriodSummary2].[ITFCT_frmRptSubPeriodSummary_Opex]
.[Form] as frmTarget

which I am struggling to get to work.  bah.

also the control I want to build up out of variables like this

i = 4
j = 1
k = 1

CtrlSrcName = "txt" & i & "_" & j & "_P" & k (= "txt4_1_P1")

and then use

frmTarget.CtrlSrcName.ControlSource = "=" & dblValue

That all seems nice in aircode but darned if I can get it to work.

any advice?

Cheers
Darryl.
