What do you plan on doing with the date value? You can add a text box to
your report with a control source like:
=[Enter a date value]

Thanks Duane - I tried this and I keep getting #Error on the report.
There must be something simple I'm missing?
The only thing I need to do with the date value is display it on the
report (no calculations are done with this date value). Thanks for your
help.

Does your report have a record source that returns any records?

Yes, the report's Record Source is a query.

Did you make sure the Name of the text box is not also the name of a field
or parameter?
