"Bold" in an Access Report.
Is there a way to embolden certain portions of text
within an Access report? We have created many reports to function as letters and would like to set some phrases in "bold" type. Can it be done? Thanks! Georgann |

"Bold" in an Access Report.
Georgann
I may not be understanding your use of the word "report", but I believe you can select a textbox and set its property to "bold". If you wish to only have the text bolded when certain other conditions obtain, you'll need to add code to the OnFormat event of that section. Your code will evaluate the value, then set the "bold" property. -- Good luck Jeff Boyce Access MVP |

"Bold" in an Access Report.
THis functionality would require the use of a Rich Text ActiveX control.

"Bold" in an Access Report.
Unless you use a Rich Text Box, as Stephen Lebans suggests, you'll need a
separate control for the Bold words and the regular words. In any case, it can be tricky to line these up. If the lengths of either section can change, it gets a lot trickier.
