I working in a doctor's office for a week or so - been transporting data I have a section called "Patient History" in memo form.

I want to know how can I bold all the dates in the field. An example would be like this

08/25 E2 32 (Q)
08/25 2HR GTT(Q): GLUCOSE (FASTING, 1HR, 2HR) 83, 145, 69 WNL
NO INSULIN LEVELS
12/01 E2 38, LH 15.3, PROG 0.7 (Q)
2/14/08 E2 53 FSH 5.2 LH 12.4 PROG 0.7(Q)
01/05/08 SMA WNL; LIPID PANEL WNL (Q)
01/05 FSH 5.2, LH 16.3, E2 68, PROG 0.8
01/05 TFT: TSH 1.63, T4 9.2, FT4 1.2
01/08 ANDROGENS: TOTAL T 18, FREET 3.5, %FREE T 1.9; DAHS 175, AM-CORT 146; ANDRO?SDIONE/17-OHP NOT DONE

go under the date field and in properties there is a item called font weight. that is where bold is just turn that on and you should be fine.

If this data is all in one field, then you are gunna get fired. Goodbye :p
 
All in one MEMO field? Don't let them fire you, tell them to fire the database programmer! That is a BIG no, no.

FIRED!!

The RTF example at Lebans (Thanks boblarson) is your only possible saving grace bro.
 
Can you tell me exactly step by step how to do this? Sorry I'm not that familiar with access...
That is a bit of a problem. Using things like this RTF control takes a bit more knowledge and programming skill than you probably have. It is not that hard to an experienced user/programmer, but to try to go through and create a tutorial on it is a bit beyond the time I think most of us have to give.

Sorry that I can't put a more positive spin on this.

For his witty one-liners and best avatar on the board, I nominate Oldsoftboss for Member-of-the-Month. :p
 
Aye... and aye again because just typing in 'aye' is too short a message to post (according to the forum :rolleyes: )
 
Aye!

And on that note, I think I found a picture of OldSoftBoss...

And, for the record yepwingtim, we're just having some fun :)...not trying to be nasty to you personally. However, we've seen a lot of claims, by a lot of posters, about needing urgent help because the boss will sack them otherwise. You might say we're a little jaded about such because it often comes across as manipulative emotional blackmail.

If true, your boss should not fire you because what you need to do is not possible in the database given how it was set-up by the db designer and also given that you are not an access developer. If that's really what your boss expects, then feel free to get him to post here directly and we'll be sure to tell him exactly that. And maybe to add he's a twit for such ridiculous expectations.

Also, there's a thread that contains a list of recurring issues on the forum that tends to get posts ignored, or worse. http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=122354

I'm only mentioning this as you're obviously very new to the forum and may be unaware of these commonly recurring issues.
 
Dave,
It looks like the aye's have it! Select anything you want from page 27 of the catalog. :p
