i use this code under the print command button to get the value of the text box and print it on the report

Private Sub cmdprint_Click()
  Form2.Show
  Me.Hide
  
crxreport.FormulaFields.Item(1).Text = Chr(34) & txtold_idno.Text & Chr(34)
crxreport.FormulaFields.Item(1).Text = Chr(34) & txtold_cat.Text & Chr(34)

but it shows me error object variable or with block variable not set.whats that mean?
i use a formula for my id and cat..

with block variable not set

will probably refer to the cr report control that is not referenced. You need to set its datasource first before you can make a call to it.:)
