Thanks very much for your replies and your help.I couldn't quite make things 
work, which prompted me to take another approach. The unbounded text boxes were 
only to show Information
and this can also be done with labels. So I used labels. The last line of my 
code example would than be: 
oDiscountFact.Label = format(sDiscountFact, sFormatString2)
After having made the conversion to label a thought occurred to me: The text 
boxes and the associated labels were both given the same name, and therefor the 
confusion. I am not sure, but it sounds plausible. I have been working with 
database front ends for about 20 years, using Rekall, and there this problem 
never arose.Thanks againEgbert

Using the GUI, I can set the default value for an unbound text box
belonging to any form or subforme, and nothing changes this text. Then I
can inspect this text box using MRI and find out the property I need to set.
