    Why doesn't Access let me put a space between words in a textbox

    Hi,



    I have a textbox in a sub form in Access called Comments, which is not locked. However it does not let me put a space between words.

    I am not sure what I have changed, as it was working on Friday.

    Thanks

    Does the textbox have a setting for the input mask property?

    Hi,

    The input mask is blank as it is just a free text box so the staff can write comments in the box.

    The only options I have when I click this is Postal Code, Password, Long Time, Short Date, Short Time, Medium Time and Medium Date so none of these fit in with what I need.

    thanks
