Lin: If your expression is not defined correctly, you will not be allowed to define a new or change an existing expression. Also, make sure that all the fields in the bottom part of the designer, i.e. Variable Type and Calculate on, are properly selected.

It won't let me change or define new expressions in my report! This is frustrating!

Hmmm... How do I do this? I'm trying to concatenate 2 text fields into one (FirstName & LastName) and also to add a comma between another (City, Province) Thanks, Lin On Sun, 17 Feb 2008 16:38:49 -0800, "Lin MacDonald" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: I am having what I think is odd behavior in the Report Builder but maybe, I am just not going about it right: Add/Edit Variables brings up the Expression Builder screen. I can delete Variables but I can't change them or add new ones. When I hit Change or Add, nothing happens. If I try to add a Variable to my Report, the Variable I just tried to create shows up in that list, but still not in the Add/Edit list, so I can't change it when it doesn't work. I'm trying to concatenate 2 text fields into one (FirstName & LastName) and also to add a comma between another (City, Province) So, is this odd behavior or should I be doing something else? Lin
