="Pursuant to paragraph 3B of the license between you and us, dated October
1, 2004, this will serve to notify you that we wish to exercise rights
titled " & [Title] & " written by " & [Writers]

I have the above expression in a control. I would like to make the text
normal and the fields bold and underlined. How do I do that? Everything I
see in the help section implies I have to apply formatting to the control as
a whole. Doesn't seem right. Any ideas?

thanks

That is exactly right. One control = one format unless you use an ActiveX
rich text control. You could write the text on the report using code
instead of using TextBoxes and then do this, but each circumstance dictates
whether that is practical or not.
