Formatting a text String

[Brennan]

Hello:

I have an Access 2K Report that has a bunch of text boxes
that contain text strings that are concatenated with some
fields.

I need to know if it is possible to bold the information
supplied by the fields as well as certain words in the
text string. I tried highlighted my selection and
choosing Bold but it didn't work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

No, you can not do that in a text box, they only have one
format property that applies to its entire contents.

If this is really important, then you have to find another
kind of control that does take care of that kind of thing.
Stephen Leban's RTF ActiveX control at www.lebans.com is a
popular choice.
