Format words typed into a textbox

[Viadan]

Hello, I'm wondering if someone can help me with this. I'm using Access 2000 and need to be able to italicise or underline only specific words within a textbox. The textbox's record source is a field with memo properties. For example; I want to be able to underline a species name within a textbox where I have written 3 sentences, but I don't want to format everything typed, just the species name. Any help on this would be appreciated.

You cannot not format individual words in a text box. You will need to use a Rich Edit control. I use Total Access Memo from FMS. It works very well but it's not cheap.
