Hello everyone:

I have a huge problem that I'm trying to get around.  I am trying to
bold portions of a string that is concatenated in a field on a form.  I
don't want to bold the WHOLE field, just a portion of it.  Is there any
way to bold PART of concatenated strings?  Any solution is greatly
appreaciated.  However, I don't think an easy solution is available.

Thanks in advance!

Will

This is not possible using the controls provided with Access.
You may solve this problem using Activex controls. Have you heard about the
Total Access Memo control? Go to www.fmsinc.com and see what it can do for
you.

Look at the SelStart and SelLength properties, and see if they help.

Sorry Turtle, those properties will not be of any help here.

William,  you need a Rich Text ActiveX control for this.  It ships with ODE
97 and is also available from FMS (www.fmsinc.com).
