Al, Tried that but the text I want to display is dynamic and hence you have to load it up into the general field which is a pain and takes for ages. Looking at 1001 things at the moment and the section where you can load up the .rtf data into a memo field and then append it into the General field but the problem is actually defining the RTF Format correctly ... again a long winded pain.
I think I'll end up removing the field that I want to enhance elements of which is a memo field into discrete chunks then use a listener to modify the text format to be particular colours which is the reason I want to do this. As for Bo, is he still around anyone know?

I have a requirement to do the same think without using General objects and loading them with rtf "code" as in Cathy's book on the VFP report writer as it is SLOW, SLOW, SLOW!! Would anyone here have a copy of it? Bo's site MoxieData doesn't seem to be around anymore, hence the question.
