Label Text Size
Oct 4, 2006Hello,
Is there a way to make the text in a label smaller than size 8?
I need to put some text on a form, but it's too large for the limited amount of space I have.
Thank you.

How to change size of Label and field with out both at once, default. Access 7
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using Access 2007 and 2010. I would like a text box (or label) on a report to autofil using fixed text from a label on a different (closed) form.
View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to make just part of the text in a text box bold, or to use different font sizes in the same text box?
Something like this:
---------------------------------
Heading in bold: description in regular (not bold)
(a smaller height line used as a line space)
Another "normal" line
a larger height line
a normal line....all in one text box!
---------------------------------
One thing I'd like to be able to do is to specify the line height of a blank line in a text box. I'm using carriage returns created with: Chr(13) & Chr(10). I could see defining the font size of a hidden character, but I'd need to know how to assign a font size to a piece of the text in a font box.

i want to make a condition that if an OLE object of mine is empty then the label won't be visible. (visible=no)
The reason i want it is that the ;label is placed inside the OLE object frame, and when i fill the ole object i want that the label will disappear

I have a text label that I would like to have vertical instead of horizontal. In the properties box, I go to the other tab and set 'Vertical' to yes and the text rotates. Except it rotates 90 degrees clockwise. (The text starts at the upper right corner and reads down, you have to tilt your head to the right to read it.) This seems the wrong direction to me and to my office mate - all the tables we've seen with vertical text has the text rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise (text starting from the lower left corner and reads up, you have to tilt you head to the left to read it.)
Is there any way I can make the text rotate counterclockwise instead of clockwise? I really don't want to create many little graphics.
Thanks
Hi all-
Does anyone know how to create a text box inside of a label box in a report? I need to create a report that mirrors a memo format. In the report, I need to type a label ("Total score is __ out of __.") where the __ spaces are calculatedtext boxes based on a table. Thanks.
I have two text boxes, and i want to make there value be the label for the form. Here is what i have in the Label on the form:

Is there any way of increasing a text field size to above 255?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMS documentation states that space is not reserved for unused characters in a text field. Does this mean that there is no storage penaly for having a text field 255 as opposed to 80.
On a more general note are there any tools to help calculate the size of a table?
Hi all,
What can i put on a text box to limit the amount of characters entered like the 'field size' property for a table. I want to limit entry to 40 characters. Thanks in advance for any help,

I'm running Access 2003 and my question relates to delivery notes that are produced for drivers as reports. These delivery notes have a blank payment box for the driver to complete if the customer pays upon delivery.
As more and more customers are prepaying by credit cards, I'd like this payment box to be automatically filled with a "PAID" text which will let the driver know the order has already been paid for.
The delivery note is produced from an "Orders" table which has a "Paid" field whose value is automatically set to "Yes" when the order has been paid for.
I was hoping to be able to place a "PAID" label on the report which is only visible when the Paid field of the underlying query is Yes.
As things are at the moment I cannot see any way to put any conditional statement onto this Text/Label. The only options for the "Is Visible" property of the text are Yes or No.
I have globally defined 'Progress' as integerer and using the following code on my splash screen - i want to add a "." to the end of the label caption until progress = 10 (10 timer events)
Private Sub Form_Load()
Progress = 0
End Sub
Code:
Private Sub Form_Timer()
Dim Dot As String
Dot = "."
Progress = Progress + 1
Me.lblProgress.Caption
If Progress = 10 Then
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmLogin"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmSplash"
End If
End Sub
I have a report that displays on a continuous style report. What courses the employee have been on and when they expire
right I have field call expirydate and another call dayover showing the number of days till that course has expired also I have made a label called Expired1
now what I'm trying to do.....
if the expirydate has passed I want the expired1 label to be visible and dayover field to become invisible
I have tried
Code:
Private Sub Detail_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
If Me.Expirydate < Date Then
Me.expired1.Visible = True
Me.DaysOver.Visible = False
End If
If Me.Expirydate > Date Then
Me.expired1.Value = False
Me.DaysOver.Value = True
End If
I have also tried the code on current event on the report
now my problem if one of the course has expired it will show the label called Expired1 but on all the records but I only want it to display on the record that has expired and leave the daysover text box visible if course has not expired
I am attempting to use VBA code to make the label in my report hidden if the text box is blank. I am very new to coding, and am not sure how I would express this in code. I have been looking at a few examples of how to get this done, but it doesn't seem to work. Where to insert the code. Attached is the image of the properties for my label and text box that I want hidden if text field is blank. I al just lost trying to figure this out.

I have searched on this and it says: it doesn't matter as long as it's of type text. It matter if it's long integer..etc. I am not quite sure.
I wonder if default size '50 of fields' of type text occupies that size in memory even though the data in the field is not 50 chars.

Notice how the size of the text is a lot bigger than the size of the same text in the first image?
How do I reduce the size of the text? I have looked in all the boxes and tried everything but it just doesnt want to change the final output text size.
I would like the label for a text box to read "B&W or Color" for a database of photographs.
Access will not accept the ampersand. Since this is just a label, I thought I could get away with using this symbol.
Is there a way to get the label to accept the ampersand?

I have a form that i need to insert text into the text is held in a table and the amount of text can vary from 30characaters to 1,000's
now i have a drop down box with the following
SELECT [Wording].[wordingid], [Wording].[wordingnme], [Wording].[wording] FROM Wording;
i select one and then while that item is highlighted , i push a button append and it inserts in to my form
The table settings on the form are memo and the table settings on the wording are memo , i can see the info in the raw table its the append bit
so wording - fishing would be wordingnme and the text I want to apply would be "gone fishing etc "
works a treat but I only get the first 255 chars of a long wording
I can insert as many wordings into my form but size limt of 255 so its not the form
any ideas ?????:confused:
