Changing memo text during report preparation

Juhas

Hi, in my database I've got field called "present". And this field can have 2 values: 0(zero) or 1.

Then on my MasterDataBand I have memo connected to this field.
But I don't want this memo to show 0 or 1, just words. So I wrote in OnBeforePrint:

case <frxDBDataset."present"> of
    0: PresenceMemo.Text:='Not present';
    1: PresenceMemo.Text:='Present';
  end;

but it doesn't work. Why?
Memo still shows 0 or 1

don't connect the memo to the field and remove any text in the memo that looks like
[datasetname."fieldname"]

OK, thx, that works fine.
