Hi,

Is there any way to code a text box to display the name of the table that
I'm using for my query? I don't want to hard code it, since I have other code
that changes the RecordSet property.

Is there a way to have it dynamically become the name of the table that one
of the fields is coming from?

Thanks,

John Schping

to get the query name use something like =RecordSource
in the unbound textboxes recordsource
then use a query name that references the tables name

Not easily, since a Query could very well reference more than one table: you
can have Joins, Subqueries, DLookUps... the expression "the table" is
ambiguous!

How do these recordsets differ? Do you perhaps have several
identically-structured tables for different subsets of your data? If so,
that's a Very Bad Idea....
