I think I understand then. I was not sure if you were setting the value to 'True' instead of .t. under the variables declaration in the report, or in the report field's expression. If you put Sergey's expression in the report control's expression field (not under format), it should work. It always has for me. Since all you want to do is change the way the value .t. is displayed. Just to make sure I DO understand, you did this by adding a field control to the detail band and right clicking on the field control, selecting properties, and entering IIF(lproperty,'Yes','No') in the expression section, correct? The value of lproperty is actually always .t. or .f., correct?

>Hi Tracey,

>The expression is in the report field control and the reason why I don't want to leave the variables as .T. or .F. because it doesn't make sense to the user. lproperty represents if property damage occurred on company's premises or not and .T. (company) and .F. (Third Party). I don't understand what you're refering to when you said "just change the way it is displayed using the expression field of the report's control". Can you explained in more details. TIA
