RE: [AccessDevelopers] Bolding a word within a text box in a report

[Jose Luis Mora Jr]

Thanks for your responses Cathy and Orville.   Doing a mail merge in Word would have been ideal and I actually suggested that it would make life a lot happier for everyone if this could be done in Word – BUT the organization does not have licenses for Word.  They are using WordPerfect.  I was lucky enough that the organization had a few licenses for Access.  The client will not fork over the $$$ for licenses in Word when WordPerfect is much cheaper.  So Word is not an option.   Thanks,   Jose       "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." - Yogi Berra -----Original Message----- From: AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Orville Sent: Friday, October 07, 2005 1:41 AM To: AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com Subject: R: [AccessDevelopers] Bolding a word within a text box in a report Importance: High   I agree with Cathy,               exporting to a Word document would be the best way.   I’m using Word models (model.dot) with pre-formatted text, in the model I put bookmarks to define the exact place where text must start and then, with a routine, I open the model and start to fill the document.   With the routine I can use “if-then” and decide to format in a way or another.   Regards,               Manuel         -----Messaggio originale----- Da: AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Per conto di Cathy Jupp Inviato: venerdì 7 ottobre 2005 8.04 A: AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com Oggetto: RE: [AccessDevelopers] Bolding a word within a text box in a report   This might not be very helpful, but in your place I'd use Word and do a mail merge from an Access query, rather than trying to use Access as a WP.  You might succeed In bolding this one word, but in my experience the client will next time want "this bit in a different font and that bit blue and and and". Cheers Cathy -----Original Message----- From: AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Jose Luis Mora Jr    I am creating a report for a client where they would like to have stand “Dear John….” type of letter.  I have the report nearly complete but the only catch I have is that there is one word within a sentence in the report that the client would like to bold.  How do I do that?    Please zip all files prior to uploading to Files section.
