Superscript and subscript in Access

G

Guest

I am entering information into access 2000 and for the life of me can't get superscript or subscript items. I can use the character map and insert "some" of the characters I need but this is very time consuming. In word you have the option under fonts for these but in access I do not. Any suggestions?

Access doesn't really support them. You could use an RTF control, but that's
cumbersome.

Well it might not be "as" cumbersome as what is happening now so how would I do an RTF control?

You should consider using a RIch Text ActiveX control.

to you. The character map is the only way I can find to do super or sub
script. I'm doing a medical dictionary and this is really a problem for
me. I can get most of the characters I need but I can't get capital
letters in superscript. If you hear anything pleae let me know. Thanks
again.
