Formatting in a concatenated string

G

Guest

I have a database in which I have a contract as a report. For several
reasons this works better for me than merging data with MS Word. In some of
the fields I would like to format specific portions as italics or bold. How
can I do this? I have several numerical fields and date fields that I have
formatted without any problem.

Thanks for your assistance.

You would have to use a Rich Text ActiveX control. At runtime to
programmatically add RTF encoding to plain text is not a simple task but
can be done. Far easier would be to bind the RTF control(s) to your
field(s) and manually markup the contents of these fields.
