Rich text formatting not available in subforms
I am using rich-text memo fields in subforms and the formatting menus and the
floating formatting UI that are available on the master form are not present for the subform. Only thing available seems to be control-key formatting commands but it's not enough. Both the table and the field on the form have the Text Format property set to Rich Text. Does anyone have any solutions/workarounds or know if there's a fix on the way? Thanks for the help. |

Rich text formatting not available in subforms
You're right about that, Binnie.
This is one of the limitations with subforms, and it is not fixed in SP1. I don't have a solution for you. You might be able to use a custom toolbar, or your own buttons. -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
