Access 2007 Rich Text Question

[bobdydd]

Hi All

In the plan text version of a Memo field you can easily add a date by
pressing Ctrl+Colon which makes life easy for the end user.

However, if the Memo field is set to the Rich Text Property this no
longer works. Or am I missing something?

I don't know, but it's easy enough to write the code yourself. You can
create an AutoKeys macro to listen for keystrokes, call your public
function, and have it add text if the current control is a memo field.

Thanks Tom

I would have missed that functionality
