    How to indent first line in text box?


    I have a text box assigned to a memo control that I would like to set an indentation for. However, I only want the first line of text to be indented, and I would like to be able to set the specific indent size. Is there any way to do this?

    good question. actually, I don't think so. But I'm usually wrong anyway. It wouldn't make sense for Access to allow it anyway. FYI.

    but one begs the question, WHY? Doesn't seem like it would make a whole heck of a lot of difference.

    Nope, can't do. Access doesn't really have much in the way of word processing. You can type in leading spaces but no indent/tab formatting. I wish I could do super and sub scripting of text, but again that is word processing.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
