MS Access Forum / General 1 / February 2008Trouble getting memo field printout exactly the same layout as the form
My client insists that the printed copy of text entered into a memo field have EXACTLY the same layout as it appears on the screen. I found I had to eliminate the vertical scroll bar. Then I copied the memo field from the form to the report. I verified that the font and font size (MS Sans serif 8) were the same. However, the text shows differently. On the printed version, more text shows on the line than in the form. Suggestions?

If so, set that property to False. >> My client insists that the printed copy of text entered into a memo >> field have EXACTLY the same layout as it appears on the screen.

But that wouldn't change the layout of text left to right. >>> My client insists that the printed copy of text entered into a memo >>> field have EXACTLY the same layout as it appears on the screen.

I copied a field on a form that was a memo to a report and plugged in a bunch of nonsense into the memo field. When the size of the boxes were the same I was able to display more data in the report's memo even tho they were the same size. So I needed to shrink the size of the memo in the report and finally got them to display the same data. So the only thing I can think of is to make the report's memo a tad bid smaller. |
