I am changeing the label caption via code but it does not indicate the
change when the report is shown on the screen. I first open the
report via VB and then place this line in code
reports!rptcardtobesent1year!label4.caption = "1 year cards to be sent
for " & forms!frmmonthselect!lstmonthselect When I view
?reports!rptcardtobesent1year!label4.caption in the immediate window
it has the correct text but when I look at the open report the label
does not indicate a change. Do I need to setfocus for that label
first before I assingment a value to the caption property?

I believe the issue is that you need to make sure that both
"rptcardtobesent1year" and "frmmonthselect" are both open when you
call the code that makes the change to the label caption property. If
these items are not open, it means that the objects have not been
instantiated, so their properties will not be accessible.
