I'm really hoping someone can help with a topic which has cropped up from time to time in the past but which never seems to have been answered satisfactorily, and that's displaying html in a database.
I have a large database which already includes html codes in the fields - it's a complete set of email digest posts with fields for date, sender, message number, subject and body text - which I'd like to display in it's original form. An ordinary form shows all the html code making the contents difficult to read; is there a simple way of being able to view this so that the correct original message layout is shown, i.e., the html is parsed (is that the right expression)?
Perhaps I should point out I'm a complete novice when it comes to Access; I can write a simple form easily enough, but I have zero knowledge of VBA or anything similar, so non-technical answers or a step by step example would be very much appreciated.
