    Reporting Error

    I've just run into an issue to which I see no solution (at least not an
    obvious one!).

    Details: Access 97 (yes I know it is old, but that is what the client
    has!)

    Unbound report with a number of queries. All working fine.

    Needed to add one more set of values coming in from YET another (though
    separate) query.

    Query works fine when run on it's own. However, by adding 4 unbound
    textboxes to the report and attempting to bind these to the four fields
    within that (properly working) query in that report - first of all the
    report does not see the new Query object?!? Because of that, when the
    report is run in a Preview mode I get "Insert Parameter" error and then
    another series of errors (4 to be exact) that tell me that the fields
    do not exist or are misspelled!!!

    User is set to standard admin, no password, i.e. anyone can access this
    database since it is used only for reporting; no restrictions to the
    objects of the database. I am at a loss!

    I guess the question is why does the report not recognize the new Query
    object? Because if the object were recognized then there would be no
    reference to a parameter nor a need for "spelling correction"

    Anyone wirh any ideas?
