How Do You Import Formatted Text Into Memo Field In Access

3 New Member
Hello,
Please how do I convert formatted text in a word document into markedup text in a memo field in MSaccess, and retain the formatting. I have created a form to display the contents of a word document, and intend to use Leban's RTF2 control to view the file's contents. Your response will be most valued.

I would save the word document in .rtf format and import that into the Leban's control.

Thanks Nico. How would you do the import? There's a table containing about 50 records, and each record has a unique document to be inserted into a memo field.

You could try code, but (especially when there's already formatting in the docs) I would just open the table and a form with the control side by side and use the CTRL-C and CTRL-V to copy/paste the text.
Guess creating and testing the code solution takes just as long...

Access 2K, SP3 on Windows 2K, SP4 All, I have an import spec set up with quoted Identifiers and comma-separated values. The text file is produced by a 3rd-party program of which I have no control. It outputs all text fields surrounded by quotes, and all numeric fields w/o quotes. All fields are separated with commas. This has been working for 2 years, until today, when one of the data fields

I have seven huge fixed width text file that I need to import to Access. They contain headers, subtotals, etc. that are not needed. There is also some corrupt data that we know about and can correct once the data is in Access (or during the import process itself). Furthermore, the text files are poorly set up, such that some records may be "shifted" over a few characters, and therefore the fixed width nature of the file is corrupted. ...

Hi. I got a "|" delimited file, and one of its columns (the last one) is MANY chars long. If I use my try to manually import the file, the text in the last column is cut off at char 255, as it should. I have tried to import it by code - I have created a target table in Access where the "LongText" field, the last one, is of type Memo. Then I have tried to open the text file with an OpenDatabase command, then go thru the recordset...

I have searched the web forums, and can't seem to find an answer to this particular problem I have. In an excel sheet, cells in one column have formatted text in the "wrapped" cells. For many of the cells it is far more than 256 char. After import to Access, the carriage return (CR) and Line Feed (LF) is shown with a square symbol in the text, and the text is just "dumped" into the field without CR or LF. Have also tried to indentify the...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
