Golfinray - the format is/was blank in the sub form qry_Emp_TotalHrsWorked
subform for 'SumOfEmp_Act_Prod_Hrs'. After reading your reply I tried
changing the format in the subform to general number and standard number. I
also tried the "1920" - still getting the #name? error.

Are hours in units of time or text? If text your 1920's must be "1920"
