Format / Unbound Text Box

[Guest]

Folks, I have an unbound text box on a report which displays a text
paragraph. Is there a way to have some words within this one text box in
italics, others in bold, and others in a different color all within the same
box? I am using a report to create a letter and this client uses a lot of
bold, italics, and different colors within one paragraph.

Also, is there a way to full justify all the text within the text boxes?

Thanks for your help.

The Access text box is not capable of formatting part of the text
differently from other parts. If this is important, you may be able to store
rich text, and use a rich text box. Stephen lebans has one you can download
from www.lebans.com.

That should also solve your 2nd issue. Although the Access text box does
have a Distribute option in the Text Align property, it makes a mess of the
last line of a paragraph.
