The only way to do this is using an RTF control. However, I have not found a report writer that can incorporate RTF strings (with formatting) in a standard report. In your MEMO field, what gets stored is all of the RTF formatting string information. When you print this field, you'll see exactly that, NOT formatted text.

>I have been asked if there is a way that VFP could display a certain text in an edit box in a different color to have that text stand out from the rest. What we have here is a memo field that when an engineer updates the memo field a date stamp gets placed at the end of their just entered text. It is this date stamp that they wish to stand out in the edit box. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
