access 97 with word edit

[van]

Can someone point me to how to solve this problem

I have text field in an access 97 database and
I want to edit it with enough sophisitication that
I can use at least tabs and bold. I am thinking
WORD, but do not how to do this on my access form
and within a container on that form.

Any pointers?

Thanks
Van

A plain Access text box will do tabs, but not bold. For any non-ascii
formatting, you'll need a rich text control. Start at Steve Lebans web
site.
