Hi,

I am using Print method to dynamically control text format (from S. Lebans,
see URL below), and I can set font, bold, italics properties fine, but I dont
see how to force the text to wrap nicely to next line.

I know I missing something, but I just cant see it.

Thanks, Len

You're not missing anything. Wrapping is a very complex
problem. I don't know what it might be, but I presume there
is a combination of Windows API calls that you could use,
but I really think that's going too far.

Personally, I think that your attempts to use a relatively
simple solution to mixing normal and bold text has failed
and it's time to use the heavy duty RTF solution. See the
same web site for a free RTF control.
 
Actually, I just realized, I can use MS Word! Instead of just focusing on
Access Report, I can create a mail merge with Word, and use its formatting
tools.

Thanks, Len
