Memo Field
Hi I'm using Access 97 & in a form I have a Memo field restricted to 1200 characters, although you can type away until the limit set by the coding is reached it will not allow me to Tab. Such as 1) Issue letter 21/02/06 2) Bill issued 22/02/06 Is there a way to fix this? Best Wishes Bruce

Memo Field
Do you mean you can't tab out of the field?
Or do you mean you can't input a tab in the field? If the latter, that is normal behavior for Access. "Bruce" wrote in message ...
