Are you sure there is a value in Me.CompanyName? Try setting a breakpoint on that line, then type this in the Immediate
window:
?Me.CompanyName

Open the code in the VB Editor and click in the margin to the left of the
line of code. A dot should appear in the margin, and the line should be
highlighted. Run your code, and it will stop when it reaches the breakpoint.

The breakpoint should throw you into the Visual Basic Editor ... at that point, you'd want to view the Immediate window
(Ctrl + G wil show this window), then type this in the Immediate window:
?Me.CompanyName
then press the Enter key ... this should show you the value that's currently in Me.CompanyName
