Hi Richard,

I am using Access 2016 on Windows 8.1 while taking your lessons.

I refer to the part where you said that there are two ways to change the contents in the textbox from Plain Text to Rich Text. The first method is to delete and re-add the textbox, and the second method is to double-click the textbox to bring up the Property Sheet, and select Rich Text in the Text Format field. When I used the second method however, I could not find the Text Format field in the list. I am not sure whether this is due to me using a later version of Access. In the end, I used the first method instead and it could work.

Kindly advise if there is a way to use the second method for Access 2016. Thank you.

Regards,
Darren
