This is a big struggle tonight. Just lost my automatic logon so if it hasn't been set automatically I have to figure what cookie field to use.
I have a simple table with a memo field in. Somehow, I must have put data on about the 5th line down, with nothing above it so when I saw the table in the browse mode it appeared that the memo was empty. When I printed a report I saw the information and realized there was info there.
Now first the trivial thing which didn't seem trivial. How to cut and paste the five words I wanted to move from line 4 to line 1. Eventually I saw the cut (scissors) but where is the paste. OK control "V" did it but why make me think.
Am I missing something?
Next thing, having put the five words at the beginning of the memo how do I get rid of 3 blank lines below so that on print I don't have space between this record and the next.
I have tried everything to find the blank spaces and failed.
I must say that I was trying to find the difference between just putting a memo field on a report and then putting a rich text object on a report and puting the memo field in it.
This brings me to another point. Is there a fairly simple description somewhere to show how to use rich text objects, with some examples. Currently it is too late to wade through Dr Waynes Books looking.
