Display Ampersand

 

Display Ampersand. The & (Ampersand) symbol is a Microsoft Access Reserved symbol, so Microsoft Access does not like you using it. Sometimes though it is just what you need to convey your message in a label. As and example you might have the label “Questions & Answers” if you were to write it just like that in a label, it will look okay in Design view, but when you change it to Normal view it is displayed as “Questions _Answers”.

To get around this type your label like this “Questions && Answers”, now when you check out the result, your label will be displayed as “Questions & Answers”.
