Charlotte, Thanks for the info. Brad -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Charlotte Foust Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2011 3:06 PM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Known Bugs List in A2K7/10 I didn't work much with 2007, but I've been using a 2010 accdb based on the contacts template to handle an invitation list for a friend. I wanted to print the Company name if it was Xyz Company and otherwise to print the email address on a report listing the contacts. In VB.Net, that would have been a no brainer. In Access, I could not find any way to change the visibility of a control on the subreport in the events of the subreport (parent report unbound), so I finally was forced to use the CanGrow/CanShrink properties to print both fields when they existed! I probably could have worked around it if I had wanted to struggle for hours with it, but I didn't. I could have gone unbound if I could have found the appropriate event to use to populate a label or some such, or I could have juggled subreports I guess. It was just so darn limiting, that I didn't bother.
