Why vbNewLine Doesn't Work in Microsoft Access Rich Text Fields (And the Simple Fix) - QQ #83

from Computer Learning Zone · host Richard Rost

In today's Quick Queries, we discuss why inserting line breaks using VB New Line in Access VBA may not work in rich text boxes and explain how to fix it by using HTML tags. We also cover issues with parsing driver's license barcodes, sorting months in modern Access charts, the two-gigabyte database file size limit, differences between refresh and repaint in Access, limitations with rich text box line counts, legacy 32-bit ActiveX dependencies, and answer various viewer questions on filtering subforms, many-to-many relationships, and other Access tips.
