Has Anyone Noticed.......

Hi,

has anyone noticed the trends that pass through the forum? currently, the hot topic seems to be Access & outlook. everyone is asking questions about it especially the "new peeps" with one issue or another all in the same timeframe all with slightly different scenarios. also, Access & Excel is quite a common one lately.

is it just me who thinks "studentville" or anyone else wanting to ride the band wagon in town?

not being prejudice by any means BTW

I agree. I wouldn't be suspicious, except a lot of them seem to have done exactly zero programming tasks before.

Its a time of year thing, summer breaks are nearly over and they need to finalise their projects, having left this to the last there is now an influx of similar sounding questions. It seams the examination boards are all using the same theme this year.

yeah, thats what they all say..........

i dont get what you are looking for in your other post. it doesnt make any sense whatsoever which is probably why you havent had any response.

maybe, you could outline what you need without the plentiful" "additions and give a clear indication of what your problem is so someone can assist.

ok.. I hardly over used the Smileys and they are perfect for my example.

Let me try to go more in depth with my needs.

I have a memo field in my table. This field contains text information. I need my report to display an image from a location i designate inline with my text. For example, if I have the following text in my memo field:

"(!W) Warning: This is a warning"

then when i view my report I want the (!W) to be replaced with an image that i designate (maybe in the VB?) and it should display like this:

" Warning: This is a warning"

The image needs to apear within the text.

The only thing I can think of is to write a script in the VB that would search my Textbox data for any of my "keywords" and when displayed in the report, replace the text "keyword" with an image defined within the script.

the (!W) would be a key word.. I can use whatever text to define the "keyword", the text used doesnt matter to me. So if there is some sort of "Breakout" text then i would use that.

some psudo code would be

Where Memofield.Text contains '(!W)'
replace with 'c:\image\W.jpg'

or something along those lines

I basically just need to insert images along with my text and each row of data in my memo field will be different and contain different data.

(I will also post this in my Original Thread)
