=UCase([esstatuste])
Main Topics
Browse All TopicsI'm writing a report in Access 2003. I have a field [esstatuste] that will contain one of three options: supervised, unsupervised or null. I'm trying to create a text box that will show either "UNSUPERVISED", "SUPERVISED" or nothing based on those three options. Here's what I tried but I get only blanks with this expression:
=IIf(([esstatuste]="unsupe

For that instance, yes that will work. But, I need to use the same theory again for later text boxes. As in:
if esstatuste=unsupervised, then ="Close Stmt: " & [ClsStFilDT]
if esstatuste=supervised, then ="Final Rpt: " & [FrIrFlDT]
I could do it if it were truly an if/then statement, but I have to allow for the fact that esstatuste may be null...which means the field should wind up blank and not either of the two above options.

hi,
why not use, seems like all you are trying to do is get the value of the field in uppercase
