Did that, didn't work. The report itself shows 0.00 not '*********'. I found the '*******' in the text property by placing Messagebox()s in the method.

>>It looks for the '**-DIRECTIVE-NEGATIVE' in the user field for the element to apply some custom formatting. However, what it puts out is simply 0.00. I have been able to determine that somehow '**********' is being placed in the toObjProperties.Text property. But when I look at the table itself, it shows proper data. What am I missing?
