My client insists that the printed copy of text entered into a memo
field have EXACTLY the same layout as it appears on the screen.
I found I had to eliminate the vertical scroll bar. Then I copied the
memo field from the form to the report. I verified that the font and
font size (MS Sans serif 8) were the same. However, the text shows
differently. On the printed version, more text shows on the line than
in the form.
Suggestions?

Is it possible you have CanGrow set in the report? If so, set that
property to False.

But that wouldn't change the layout of text left to right.

I copied a field on a form that was a memo to a report and plugged in a
bunch of nonsense into the memo field. When the size of the boxes were
the same I was able to display more data in the report's memo even tho
they were the same size. So I needed to shrink the size of the memo in
the report and finally got them to display the same data.
So the only thing I can think of is to make the report's memo a tad bid
smaller. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi folks,
I have an Access 2000 db with a memo field.
Into the memo field I put text with bold attributes, URL etc etc
What I need to to is converting the rich text contained into the memo
field in plain text.
That's because I truncate the string text but if, when I truncate it
there's a rich tag the code following the truncated string is corrupted.
Don't know if it's clear enough.

I have an mdb (2002 file format) that uses memo fields extensively. I've
read a lot about how problematic memo fields can be and that avoiding them
is a good idea. But I'm stuck with them and was wondering if there are any
best-parctices for optimizing or mitigating the risk of using them. Here's
what one table looks like:
NoteText - Memo
NoteDate - Date/Time (indexed, dupes ok)
NoteBrief - Text (length = 254)

Hello,
I'm looking for a way to parse/format a memo field within a report.
The Access 2000 database (application) has an equipment table that
holds a memo field. Within the report, the memo field is printed within
the detailed area. The problem is, the apllication is not setup
properly, thus the users are entering data within the memo field as:
location1 1/1/2005 1/1/2006

I am using Access 2003. I have a memo field that I have put into a
report. My problem is that the report will only show a specific
amount of characters in the report. It does not display the entire
field. I have checked the properties and they are set to memo so what
is happening here? I think it is happening in more than one field but
I have only been able to identify or replicate the problem in one
field.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I hope someone can shed some light on this for me but I seem to be

Occasionally, one of the memo fields in my DB ends up losing the data
contained in it and only contains #Error. When I attempt to go into
the field to re-enter the data I get a message stating:

This is mainly a speed question.
In this example: I have a QuotesHdr table that has a few memo fields. If

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
