#Name? question

Good morning:

I have an app that's out as a split database, mde front end mdb back end.

In one of my forms, some users are getting the #name? error message in one
of the text boxes. Trouble is, it's not consistant. Some machines, it works
fine (basically it points to a date field with today's date as the default).
It works fine on my full version of access, even after I split the databse
and made the mde. It works on SOME user's machines, but not all.

If they don't enter a date, they get no date in the record. BUT, if they
ENTER a date, it works fine in all cases.

Can someone toss me a clue?? The controlsource property points to the proper
field in the table, but I didn't fully qualify the reference ... should I??
Or is this something else??

Thanks again in advance:

Kevin
 
John:

Thanks Much. The debugging code posted there only kicked out 6 references,
and the guys on the other end of the mde are smart enough to be able to do
the detective work. Then I'll know exactly what I have to add to the package
to ~hopefullly~ get rid of the problem.
