That is exactly how I do it.

Of course, sometimes when we ask these Q's, Razzak, Et Al. ultimately reward our weak (well, I'll speak f/myself), needy minds with some valuable info or software goody. So, I have a report upon which I have decided that, should a certain value exist in one field-control, I want to dynamically create another control adjacent to it. I figure that I can locate the field-control, set its default properties to make it "invisible" then, on the relatively rare occasions when the determining value NOT LIKE '%001', change those properties to display the previously hidden field. Then, I can reset those properties back to their invisible defaults. Or, is there a way to actually perform dynamic creation of report controls, as there is for those in forms? If so, what would be the tradeoffs? Thanks, Steve in Memphis J.
