I have a linked table residing in a SQL server 2000 database. When I query a memo field from that table, it shows the control characters as well. Is there any re-formatting that I can do at the table/query level that will switch those to control characters that Access forms can use?

Hi
I don't think so, cause it depend what the memo field has.
If there are only soft carriage return and hard carriage return and u can remove those by checking the ASCII code.
But if the memo field has print command and formating codes
(bold, underline etc) it would be quite tedious
