I develop in Access2000 but also have Access2003 loaded as well as VB6. I can use the rich text box in both Access2000 and VB^ but when i try to use in 2003 it gibes me an error that Access can't use the Activex control. It appears that Richtx32.ocx is registered and referenced in Access 2003.

Any ideas?
Thanks
 
A Google search with exact phrase of error message will bring many results.

Thank you for your suggestion and I certainly agree that Googling errors is usually my first move. However, I have already tried Google and found nothing and was I surprised! I thought this would be a very common problem.

Can you post the exact error message? If you are using Win 2000 or higher you can just use CTRL+C to copy the message when messagebox has focus. then paste it to a text editor.
