    Improving the Look of Titles

    I have a title in a label on a report. it looks nice and that is the problem.




    I want it to sizzle. I think there is a way to get do say, by having a 3-D effect
    on the letters, Think old movies, DeMille kind of stuff.

    The question is how do I do it in MS Access 2010? I think it can be done, I just do not know how.

    Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.


    Respectfully,


    Lou Reed

    I should think all you'd have to find is a font library and install that, however whoever you distributed it to would also have to have that library available on their machine.

    If you want something really unique - build a graphic file (jpg, png, bmp) and use that as the report title.

    if you have office publisher, you can use wordart to create some interesting effects - then take screenshot of it to make a jpg file which you can then add to your form in an image control
