Hanging indent via Rich Text Control?

You would have to remove your TextBox control and replace it with the MS
Rich Text ActiveX control.

Thank you, Stephen. I tried that, but although I did not get any error
messages about the format of the new control, it was not visible in Print
Preview or on the printout. Any insights?

The Print Preview issue is a known bug but the contents do render
correctly when physically printed.

If you are not seeing the contents of the control at all are you sure
you have the RTF control bound to a MEMO field in your table containing
RTF encoded text?

Stephen,

I would like the RTF control to be bound to concatenation of a number of
what are currently text fields. If I changed them to memo fields, would the
concatenation work?

Thanks,
Bruce
 
The control can either be Unbound or Bound to a single Memo field ,
period. You can certainly use cocatenation to build an RTF string but
you would have to programmatically add the necessary RTF encoding
yourself.

If you have multiple MEMO fields containing RTF encoded text then you
could programmatically fill a single RTF control with the contents of
the multiple fields.
