Text Lookup field shows "error displaying report" instead of value

I have two text lookup fields that are displaying the same error: However, the same two lookup fields display properly in the form for the child table: Is anyone familiar with this error...

Let's start with the obvious in case this is easy.

So those are report link fields. The field properties for a Report Link field simply match up the value in any field on the record you are on with any field's value in any other table in any other app.

Can you have a look at those two fields and see if they are configured. Likely one of them is blank.

OK, I thought that this was a report fink field but it is a simple lookup field.

Can you try making that lookup field over again and see if that fixes the issue. It feels very buggy. Just do another lookup on the same relationship.

  I think you are right about it being a bug. I made another lookup field and now they both show correctly...strange.
  
  I will try the same for the TP Model field.
  
  Thanks, Mark - have a great weekend!

    OK, so adding a new lookup field fixed the old lookup field. That is more than crazy.
