Changing a Label Caption in a report

[Regnab]

I've searched through the posting and found what should be the solution
to changing the value of a label....

Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.lblTest.Caption = "I love Access"
End Sub

However, when I go to type a similiar thing into the code underlying my
Access report, it doesn't offer the option of 'Caption' after the
'lblTest.'. I notice that at the start (after Me.), 'Caption' is on the
list. Once I put in the label name, it isn't there. I report form
opens. The obvious conclusion....I believe I have a poltigeist running
around in my database hiding things that I need. So my question is, how
does one kill (or maim) a cyber-poltigeist??

Sometimes the intellisense list doesn't show everything it should. Just type
the entry and it will work.

Yeah - I've tried doing it manually, but still no luck. I figured there
was something I was doing wrong.... not to worry - I'll just use text
boxes instead...
