Memo Field Rich Text

[shamas21]

Hi All

I have a Memo field in my table. I have changed the Text Format property to Rich Text. I can now change the formats etc of the values in the field.

However, I now want to see the Markup HTML tags in the table fields i.e. <b>test</b> in order for me to make changes manually as well.

Any ideas?

Thanks

How about creating an Unbound Text Box on the Form, that will have the Field value with Text Format Normal, when you want to edit, On Click of a button (maybe !) make it visible and do your edits?

Good idea - but I really want to do it directly from the table as Im using ADODB Recortsets

No Forms? Even with ADODB, you can set the Form's Source?

I guess you right - i think this would be the only way. Access should really allow to change the HTML direct in the table field though.

Thank you your help.

You should never be able to edit tables directly.. That's the main reason you use Forms.. If that was allowed it would render all use of Forms & Queries useless !
