MS Access Forum / Forms / May 2007loss of text formatting
When text is entered into a form field, it loses formatting such as bold or underlining an individual word or phrase. Is there some way to do this without applying the formatting to the entire block of text? Access tables do not store formatting at all. Maybe you are talking about something other than Access and therefore need to post to a newsgroup for that product.

There is some formatting in the text field of a form that can be done, such as bolding and underling, but it is applied to all of the text and not just a selected portion. > Access tables do not store formatting at all.

The only way you can do so is to use a "Rich Text Format" control rather than a textbox. This capability is builtin to A2007 but you must obtain a RTF control (from Visual Studio or from a third party) to do so in A2002/3. John W. Vinson [MVP] Super...thanks.
