Problems with '...'

[Laphan]

Hi All

When I type 3 full stops in a row, ie to show a continuation from a
paragraph such as 'The boy walked into the woods...', in a text field Access
automatically converts these dots into one character, which would be fine if
it weren't for the fact that when my VB app extracts this data it shows it
as an unrecognised char.

Is there anyway to stop Access from doing this?

Thanks

Robbie

Humble apols.

Hi,

I can see two posibilites:
1. Update your information every time, when Access does automatical changing
symbols;
2. Select Unicode font for your control to display the inputed string.

Good luck,

Nikolay
