I want to have a txtbox or some sort of control on a form
that a user could draft an email inside of this control.
I currently use a text box and then have an onclick button
that send the drafted email to a list of customers based
on a query that the button runs that adds the txtbox as
the body of the message.

So my question is how can I make it so that the user can
format there email to have bold and underlines in the body
of the message, now if they click on the bold it makes the
entire box bold or underline...

Also please review my eariler question in this group
subject: WHERE items.ITEMCODE IN my list box

I made a follow up post.

Thanks again for all the help everyone.

You'll need a rich text box control One from Microsoft is included in the
Developer Edition through Access 2002. The Access developer tools are part
of "Visual Studio Tools for Office 2003 System" for Access 2003, and I
haven't checked to see what controls are included.

There are also third-party Rich Text controls... MVP Stephen Lebans has a
free one at http://www.lebans.com. FMS, Inc. sells one, if you'd rather
pay -- http://www.fmsinc.com.
