Format text within a formula- Crystal 8.5

[harrietohs]

I have a formula with a string of text (example "This is the first day of the week". When this string appears on the report, I want only the word 'first' to appear in Italics. Can this be done, and if so, how?

Thanks

This is the" + "<i>" + " first " + "</i>" + "day of the week"

Format the formula to html interpretation.

Hi Naith,
Thanks for the quick response. One more question:

How do I format the formula to HTML?

Right click the formula, go to Format Field, and under the Paragraph tab, use the drop down for Text Interpretation to select HTML Text.
