FMS access memo?

[SF]

Hi,

I have a database to proposal record, I want the database to be able to
produce a good quality format reports (mostly Proposal form, Milestones etc)
contain Rich Text Format text (proposal contain some multicolor, underline,
bold, italicize or even some Chinese font). I found Access Memo when
searching through web site. Anyone use Access memo from FMS before? Can
Crystal Report can handle in type of reports also?

TIA,

SF

Hi

You could create your reports in Word then merge the data from your access DB.
Have a look at Albert Kalla's excelent methods

I haven't used Crystal Reports since VB 4 nor seen it since VB 6. Those
versions did not have the capability that the Access report generator does.
I have used the Total Access Memo product and it is excellent. I have also
used the free control from Stephen Lebans:

and found it works well, but I haven't tested it in as many scenarios.

Why not try the free RTF control Stephen Lebans has at
http://www.lebans.com/richtext.htm? At least if it doesn't do what you want,
you won't be out any money. <g>

Hi,

I am currently using Stephen Lebans RTF2. In my report, I have 3 sub
reports, mostly contain formatted text with some Khmer (Cambodia Font). The
report content does not wrap very well. It prints on the report footer as
well.

I was thinking that try FMS Access Memo whith the hope of fixing this
problem.
