report prints tab characters

[Bobw]

In access 2007 When I copy text from word, the tab character (for example
from after a numbered or bullet pointed section) shows as a thick line and
when printed in a report shows as a small box. I do I stop this from
happening.

Hi Bob,

You will need to strip them out. Probably the best time is on the
field's After Update event. Something like:

[txtText from Word].Value = Replace([txtText from Word].Value, vbTab, "
")
