message boxes

[Kevin]

In Microsoft Access 97, you can type in

msgbox "This is bold @@ This is normal", vbinformation, "Hello"

and it will print out a bold and then normal line. However, it won't work in
Microsoft Access 2002. Is there any other way to make it work in Microsoft
Access 2002 or did they remove the feature?

Thanks for the help
Kevin

They removed it after A97.

There are workarounds like designing your own form, 3rd party controls, etc.

There's also the workaround using the Eval() function that is provided
