Lebans RTF Active X Control

[jj]

I have downloaded Lebans Active X control to use with Access 2003. I am
trying to import data, a download in txt format. I have placed the control
on a form with the source being a comment field that was downloaded. The
form does not pull in the data from the source field. I've checked the field
in the table and it does have the rtf coding in that field. I've tried
typing in the control and it does accept it but its plain text. There is no
toolbar. I imported the toolbar from one of the sample databases from Lebans
web site. The sample databases work fine. When I highlight some of the text
and click on a button in the imported toolbar it tells me that the expression
that I entered has a function name that Microsoft Access cannot find.

I would really like to make this work. Does anyone out there know what I'm
doing wrong?

Just a guess. Is the function name the same as the module name? If so, you'd
get the error you mention.

It doesn't give me a function name.

Hi jj,

Probable reason for not finding function answered in other thread.

If you've downloaded and installed the OCX (ActiveX control), download one
of the sample files matching your version of Access. Now open the sample
form. Does everything work? It should. Now copy the 2 modules from the
sample into your database. It should work fine.
