Can you format a Memo field?

[MikeRussell]

I want to privide a form for my users that allows them a free text field (Memo?) for input.

I would also like them to be able to format their text e.g. the use of bold, allignment and choice of font.

Can this be done?

It's not native to Access. There are RTF ActiveX controls which you can use in your forms that will give this type of functionality. Here's a link that has both ActiveX and non-ActiveX solutions to the problem:
