formatting concatenated fields

Hi potts,
The only thing that I can think of would be to make three
unbound controls, break the concatenated field into its
first, second and third components. Assign them to your
three new controls. Adjust their widths and locations
based on length. Then set the middle one to italics.
That's a lot of work, but it would look pretty good. One
drawback is that to make the calculations accurate it
would require a fixed-pitch font.

Your deduction is correct, the only other option is to use a third party add in such as Rich Text Control or the one from FMS which support variable formatting
