in Access 2007: problem setting text box to text format of Rich Text

1 New Member
In Access 2007 ADP connected to SQL Server Express, most forms allow Text Format attribute of Rich Text, but a few do not.
In each case the SQL Server table field connected to the Access Text Box is defined as varchar( MAX ). I see no differences between the sub forms where I'm setting the Text Format attribute to Rich Text and the sub forms where I get the error: "The setting you entered isn't valid for this property" when I try to set the Text Box to Rich Text.
Any clues?

Hi, I'm trying to use Mark Hammond's win32clipboard module to extract more complex data than just plain ASCII text from the Windows clipboard. For instance, when you select all the content on web page, you can paste it into an app like Frontpage, or something Rich Text-aware, and it will preserve all the formatting, HTML, etc. I'd like to include that behavior in the application I'm writing. In the interactive session below, before I...

Hi Gang, I'm using VB 2005 so if you don't have that then you might skip this issue. I need to get a rich text box and a regular text box's border styles to match. For further explanation please see the screenshot. http://christianblackburn.com/misc/Find%20Files%20Text%20Boxes%20Don't%20Match.png Thanks, Christian Blackburn

If you are looking for opinon on what's useful in Access 2007, there's a new article at: http://allenbrowne.com/Access2007.html Covers what's good (useful features), what's mixed (good and bad), what's gone (features removed), what's fixed (old issues solved), what's broken (new bugs), configuration, compatibility, should you buy, and links. It is opinion, so you may disagree, but hopefully it's an informative summary.

Just found out that the Microsoft Rich Textbox does not support full text justification, since it's based on Version 1.0 of the RichEdit Window Class, and full text justification is only available in versions 3.0 or later of the class. However, also just found out that the new Rich Text property in Access 2007 ALSO does not support full text justification! This seems incredible, that MS would create a brand new application, and not...

I posted a few days ago that it seems to me that the Access 2007 rich text feature does not support: a) full text justification; b) programmatic manipulation. I was hoping that someone might know one way or the other whether that was true or not, or could point me to an article or help text that would. What I have seen so far online and in Access 2007 help seems to confirm the above. But that (or at least (b)) seems incredible that it...

I'm doing this on my rich text box called rtb, with cmb being a combo box. rtb.Text.Insert (rtb.Text.Length, cmb.SelectedItem.ToString () + "\n"); The text, however, doesn't appear. What do i miss? The idea is to add the text selected from the combo box each time the selection is made. That way, one can create a simple log or "how-to" list of commands.

Overview: 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,...
