i tried this and keep getting #errors on the report. the text field is being
aquired from a query if that makes any difference.

I need to trim the first three characters of a text field when printing to a
report.

Use an unbound control.
Set it's control source to:

=Mid([FieldName],4)
 
Make sure the control has a different name than the
fieldname.
