How can I highlight keywords in a report.

1 New Member
I'm using a form with a textbox that user's enter a keyword to search. The form runs a query that searches for the keyword and displays the results in a report. Is there anyway to get the keyword that the user entered to show up highlighted or show up in bold text in the report? I'm using Access 2002.

Can't be done in an Access report, you can't have multiple formats in the same field. Even if you were to seperate them into different fields the positioning would be a pain.

I suppose you could automate it to word and then edit it there.

As indicated by Rabbit, this cannot be done. The best you could probably do would be to indicated the Number of occurrences and the character positions of the Keyword within the Report..

Hi all, Before I re-invent the wheel here, has anyone willing to share a basic script to extract META keywords from a string. I have a string, let's say $pageText that contains the dynamic contents of the page. Ideally, I don't just want to explode the string and remove "and", "or" and "the" etc. because some the the repeated keywords may be more that one word long.

Commonly done, eg. you enter a word in a search engine and when a hit-page comes up the search word(s) are highlighted. I'm doing a fulltext search that works well but I've tried a few "packaged scripts" and haven't got one to work yet. I'm looking for straightforward understandable way to do this on my MYSQL/PHP pages. Thanks, Lee

The senario is that a user fills out a form specifying some keywords they want to search a knowledgebase for. For each article that comes back, the words in the article that match their keywords are highlighted. (Much like Windows Help does) At serverside, how would I go about handling this? -- Stephajn Craig

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
