I've just installed Stephen Lebans Rich Text Control as I have a a couple of memo fields on a form on a 2003 database where the user needs to be able to bold parts of the memo. I've installed it fine, and put the text control onto a form and it doesn't seem to do what i need (i.e. the Bold button isn't even enabled on the toolbar). I've downloaded the sample database that he has on the site and this works fine suggesting ive installed it correctly and i am going through the properties of the control with a fine tooth comb but havent found anything different yet to what i am doing on my trial form.
I've downloaded Stephen Leban's nifty calendar and have it working beautifully to enter in dates and ranges of dates to a fishing schedule table (this is a fishing regulations database). (thanks to RuralGuy for posting the link to this, and other calendars, on another thread)
I have a form for entering some parameters to narrow the results of a select query that shows the start and end dates for individual blocks of consecutive time for each scheduled fishery. (Some fisheries might be scheduled to occur every thursday and friday for a couple of months, or other hard-to-predict ranges of time.)
What I would like to do next is to click a button on the form to make the calendar appear with all the dates where fishing is scheduled to occur (from the query results) be highlighted, or circled (or something equivalent).
My vba 'skills' are not up to tinkering with his class module without some serious assistance. Has anyone tried something similar to this with his calendar? Is it even possible?
I have seen other calendars that do something similar (though I'm still in over my head trying to figure out the modules) but I'd really like to keep with Stephen Leban's calendar since it allows much more felxibility in displaying over various time intervals.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thanks.
From a info sheet on RTB Using the Add, Clear, and Remove methods, you can dynamically populate the control with embedded objects at run time. Can those 'embedded objects' be controls, e.g. list boxes, labels etc ?
I recently downloaded the Lebans RTF control (recommended by a user on this forum). I want to use it to allow formatting within a memo field.
Although I havRTF2 Control Design View Windowe it basically set up, it seems that I keep losing the use of the "RTF2 Control Design View Window". Instead of seeing the content of the record I actually see the words "RTF2 Control Design View Window" in the field either in in a form or report. If I close the database and reopen, the content of the record may appear but it will not stay.
Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas? I am totally new at this sort of control.
We need to move rich text from an Access memo field to a Word text box. So far the best Ive been able to come up with is in the code below. In this code pprs!What is a record set field of a table memo field that is bound to a text box enabled for rich text. The rich text seems to be stored as html as so I can get word to convert it by enclosing it in html tags.
Dim What As Word.Shape Set What = doc.Shapes.AddTextbox(msoTextOrientationHorizontal , doc.PageSetup.LeftMargin, 225, 534, 0) Dim sPath As String sPath = "G:Temp.html" Open sPath For Output As 1 Print #1, "<HTML>" & pprs!What & " </HTML>" Close #1 What.TextFrame.TextRange.InsertFile (sPath)

I was trying to search for a plugin which would get attached with MS Access and then while creating the forms it would get attached with the Text Box and Text Areas..
Kindly please help me in getting a solution to this problem..
how to make a line break in a rich textbox in access 2007? Chr(13) & Chr(10) worked until I changed the textbox to rich, which is necessary because certain words in the textbox need to be bold.
In my form's text box I have noticed that I can;t write paragraphs ie use the TAB key to start a new line. If I use rich text I assume this will be possible. But are there any disadvantages to using rich text?
I am using RTF2 ActiveX Control which enables me to include the Rict Text Controls in my Access Form.
I want to generate a doc document out of the information which i type in the RTF2 Area on the Access Form. And whatever Rich Text Format information i have written there (for eg in Bold, Italics, Indentation, Tables created, Bullets n Numbering etc), is retained as it is on the Doc document which i am generating with the help of bookmarks.
Please help in how do i do that 'coz i am not able to do it using the Rich Text Format...
Can anyone help?! We are trying to export some reports into a Rich Text format using Access on Office 2003 on a Win XP op system. When doing this on Win 98 the Rich text document was slightly out of line but not too bad. Now we are doing it on XP it is completely out of line and unusable. Does anyone have any suggestions please? Regards Richard
I'm trying to output some logging to a form with a Rich text textbox
This is what the form is displaying: 14:16:32: check OK: 500<10000andS235='s460'> 14:16:32: check OK: 500<10000andS235='s355'> 14:16:32: check failed:too short 500<1000231231 > 14:16:32: Ready ...
There is some coloring in the text but I'm not display that here (copy/paste of the textbox)
This is the HTML behind it (? txtbox in imm.window): 14:16:32: <font color=black>check OK: 500<10000andS235='s460'</font><br />14:16:32: <font color=black>check OK: 500<10000andS235='s355'</font><br />14:16:32: <font color=red><strong>check failed:too short 500<1000231231 </strong></font><br />14:16:32: <font color=green><strong>Ready ... </strong></font><br />
The problem is in the red > that are added to each line. I have no clue where they are coming from, in fact: they are NOT in the HTML.When I display this piece of HTML in IE I don't get the red > behind each line.I have tried to use <p> of <div> instead of <br/> but that makes no difference
how I can set a color on table column formatted as rich text and memo. For instance this table has 4 different columns of remarks, one from each engineering operating center. Remarks_1, Remarks_2, Remarks_3 and Remarks_4. Each one of the 4 operating centers enters the remarks in one of these fields. On the Dashboard report, what I do is I get all these 4 fields and merge in 1 because the report is already narrow due to several other columns as well. So there is a report combining all data : =Remarks_1& " -"&Remarks_2&" - "&Remarks_3&" - "&Remarks_4 under Remarks.
The point is that the Dashboard has colorcode, Orange for Remarks_1, Red for Remarks_2, Blue for Remarks_3 and Green for Remarks_4. All these fields are memo on rich text format. On the form I have set the color of each field, however the color doesn't get set on the table as well, but only on the form fields. How can I set a defined color to each field on the table? And also when I get all data in one column, I would see all different colors.
My error: Syntax error (Missing operator) in query expression
Followed by <div> and other HTML code. Ending with a "3075".
I get this error after adding highlighted text to my memo fields. No other rich text formatting seems to trigger it. Specifically, the error is triggered when moving from my subform to another subform or the main form.
I am generating a report that needs to have a hyperlink in part of one of the fields. Prior to saving the field to the database I do a bit of VBA coding on it and add some HTML. The result is this in the field:
"There are two ways to book with your preferred rate: <br>
2. Call us directly or at 1-800-Hampton and use your Corporate ID 12345."
It works beautifully if you paste it into a web page but in the Access report, Access applies the Bold but just ignores the hyperlink.
This is Access 2013 with MS SQL Server 2008 backend. Everything I have read suggests that this should work and is supported. Is there some trick I'm missing?
I am close to getting code to send an email from access with the body of the email populated with a Rich Text textbox from my access form. The problem I am having is that the body of the email is converted to plain text in Outlook which is creating problems for me. How to identify what I can do to convert to rich text or HTML in Outlook? I also want to attach a table that is populated by a query in my application, but i haven't got that far yet.
I'm using Access 2010. I'm passing a string into the OpenArgs of my report - works fine. In the report there are 3 rich text fields which may contain the text I passed in, and if so I want to change the color of that text to red so it stands out.
The value passed to the report changes so I'll need to use VBA in the detail's format section to check each of the 3 rich text fields.
I have been sending plain text emails for a while, but now I have a project where the formatting of the text needs to be specific and I need to send as rich text.
I can use the rich text from a table, excel, or word, but I am at a loss on how to get the data to Lotus Notes.
I am new to access and have been staring at the same Run-time error for 3 days (pathetic I know). I cannot for the life of me figure out why it does not like my Dlookup. Esentially, I want and After Update event in my combo box to populate a Rich text textbox in my form. After reading DLookup is the easiest way to make this happen. Here is my code:
I have a process that is getting data from sharepoint page, containing 2 list. Both list contain one field I am having issues in my export, a 'Multiple Lines of Text' type field which is Rich Text in sharepoint. I have an access DB with a linked table to those 2 list. Access show the one field I am having problems with as Memo.
The Linked table pulls/display the rich text data field correctly. My access query pulls/displays the data correctly.
My export procedure does not, the cell it exports to includes the HTML Tags. How can i modify my VBA export procedure to export to excel in plain text, i dont need the same format, just want to drop the html tags.
Code: Public Sub StatusReportExport() On Error Resume Next ' Test to see if the file currently exist, if so, delete file, so new file can be written. Kill ("L:Connect SiteStatus Report " & Year(Date) & "-" & Month(Date) & "-" & Day(Date) & ".xls") If Dir("L:Connect SiteStatus Report " & Year(Date) & "-" & Month(Date) & "-" & Day(Date) & ".xls") <> "" Then MsgBox "Status Report.xls File already in use!" & vbNewLine & "Please Close File, then rerun Report."
I have an Access 2010 database with a memo field formatted for Rich Text.
I created a simple form. It accepts and shows paragraphs, i.e. I press Return and a new paragraph appears (with a blank line in between paragraphs).
I then created a report based on the same fields. In the memo field it shows the text entered in the form, but not the paragraph breaks. It just shows one big block of text without any paragraph breaks. I have looked for a field property in the report design and layout views that might affect how the text is displayed in the report but I cannot find one.
It is not much use if you can input paragraph breaks in a form but not see them in a report.
