The Access report has conditional formatting of red text if the
criteria is NO and blue text if the criteria is YES. When the report is
exported to Word, the blue text remains and the red text is changed to blue.
No red text. Access 2003 on WindowsXP

As this is s function of how Access exports, an Access group would be the best
place to look for an answer. However, I doubt they'll be able to do much more
than confirm the problem (or not) and report it back to MS. The conversion to
RTF format is hard-coded into the app; no way for anyone to influence what it
does.

If this is really critical, then your only recourse would be to use VBA to
automate Word and generate the report directly, that way.
