Read Formatting in the Notes field

J

Does anyone know how to read the formatting in the notes field, using VBA?

I read the Notes field, charater by character, using VBA code, but the
bullets don't output as a character. Exporting to XML doesn't export the
bullets either.

Jill,
When you say "bullets" are you referring to line feeds? If so, a line
feed is Chr(13) and can be decoded using the Instr() Method.

No, I'm not referring to the line feed character. MSP Users can open the
"Task Information" box, click on the Notes tab, and then format notes using
the left/center/right and bullet icons.

I'm trying to find if there is any way to read the formatting in the notes
field, using vba.

Jill,
Sorry about the mis-que, I don't use formatting in the Notes field. I
played around with the bulleted indent and was unable to find an easy
way to decode it using standard ascii code. It obviously has some type
of formatting code but I suspect it will not be available through VBA :-(
