Rich Text in Access Form

[travisbrown]

Is there such a thing as a rich text or HTML editor for Access Forms?

I have a field that I want to insert formatted text to, but can't do it through a web form, which is how I would usually input such formatted text.

for "RTF". Stephen has some great resources on his site.

thanks guys.

dhookom...How in the hell do you implement this in a form? I can't find any clear instructions. I can get the elements onto a form, but having a little trouble binding things up. For one, the field seems perpetually locked. Have you used this?

the samples work nicely, but I can't pull those apart successfully either.

ZmrAbdulla, I'm trying the one you suggested too. Thanks.

I haven't tried Stephen's control. If you have questions regarding his stuff, you can ask them in the MS public news groups. Stephen checks there regularly. If you do this, place "Lebans RTF" in the subject line.

There is a detailed help on Lieban's Rich Edit Control page that includes sample download also. You have to register the Activex in you system before you could use it.
