I am currently doing this very thing is my application.
The best way (the only way I have found) is to make the
text field an embed/linked field. I have a word document
created in the same folder as my application, that has
the basic font setup that is required. Then in the
Access program, I create an embedded field that when I
double click on this field it opens WORD with this
document at the template. This allows my users to format
the text in any format that they chose. When they close
WORD it saves the document as an embed in the field. I
considered doing a link, but our folders are moved around
and renamed so much that this would never work for us.
I found the solution in the Microsoft.com knowledge
base. It tells you how to write the code to do this.
Search on Embeding Word Documents.
Hope this helps you.
