How can I assign the Cntr-v (paste) action to a command button, so that a click on the button pastes text? Thanks

Is there a way that I can 'import' E-mails from Outlook Express into a dbf? I'd need to include the e-mail address and of course the text. The idea is to save e-mails into a dbf for sorting by topic et cet. Thanks

Yeah, it seemed strange to me too. This particular app is also in 5.0. Maybe there is an optiongroup property I don't have selected.

That was the first thing I tried. However, you have to click outside the option groups for this to work. I need my users to click on the specific options they require. Doing this doesn't affect the command button. That's why I thought there must be a way around placing that liitle command line...

One optiongroup with 18 buttons.

no; it's just that I need to change the forecolor of a command button, based on clicks in an optiongroup. I'm not trying to cgange the color of any option groups. Rather than repeat the same line of code in each of the 18 option groups, I wanted a global code that would change the command...

yeah, but I got eighteen clicks!

I need to clarify...I want to change the forecolor of a command button, based on the clicks in an optiongroup. Thanks again

I need to apply: THISFORM.command1.FORECOLOR=RGB(255,0,0) to all of the option click events in an option group. I don't have the correct syntax for the 'with thisform.optiongroup1' et cet. Would appreciate the syntax for this statement. Thanks

Slighthaze. Thanks for the expertise. Much easier than I expected.

Here is an example of the string construction, much shortened in length: arwefive@areeeeve.com; arewwaad@nerscape.net; anitamprice@aol.com; andwewvg@yorrcenter.org; alsmxzh@lutwwran-hosw.com; alpenrod@ebsu.edu; ajacozz@vizu.exu;

How can I find a single email address in a string of concatenated email addresses that is stored in a memo field? I want to be able to edit a single address anywhere in this string and replace it with a revised address. Thanks

Would appreciate any tips on how to format a memo field into a 'standard' report format. I'm sure we all know how poorly memo fields print out if printed 'as is'. Thanks in advance.

Thanks all. Just didn't want users editing the .doc or .xls. Thakns for the good advice.

OK. Thought not but wanted to take advantage of the knowledge base. I'll check on the ShellExecute() idea. Thanks
