    How to add a font toolbar to a modal/popup form?

    Hi All,



    I have a form that is modal and popup. It has a textbox that allows for rich text to be entered. Currently, if I select the text, the quick toolbar appears and I can change the font, but I know some users here won't know to do that.

    I would like to add a font toolbar to the top of the form so that users can use that to change the font. Is there an easier way than creating command buttons and textboxes?

    Thanks,

    Scott

    The easiest way is to right click and use the context menu
    Otherwise assuming you have A2007 or later, you will need to use code to make the Home or Layout ribbons to appear....or create your own ribbon.
    Is it worth that effort?

    Probably not! I was hoping there was an easy way of doing it. The odds of this feature being used are slim, but I thought I'd try!

    Thanks!
