    HTML in Access Form!


    Is there a way to display HTML in a form as an object, etc? I imagine there has to be a MSIE implement to do it, but Google has not been friendly to me to find an answer. My end goal is to have formatted text...

    Not at as an object. Access allows for rich text formatting with HTML code tags. Formatted text can be saved in a Memo type field. Bind textbox to that field. Use RTF toolbar to format text. An unbound textbox can have HTML tagged strings as an expression in ControlSource.

    Thanks June7.

    OCD and trying to learn... Call it overzealous... But I had idea of making an IDE. I have memory issues, I forget var. Names by the time I go from declare to define them. I make scope errors too. Just need some colored, underlined, and mutisize font.

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