How to format text in a memo field using an Access add-in.

I am re-working an existing SQL 7 database to MS Access 2003. The data translation etc is OK if a bit hairy at times. I am using this database as a model for a new system. At yesterday’s meeting the senior pathologist announced one of his long held wishes – the ability to format his diagnosis text with bolding, italics, text color change. I can’t do this in a normal memo field. Can you use another editor on memo fields?
A: FMS offers an Access add-in with this functionality: Total Access Memo. I have used this add-in in some of my databases, and it works beautifully.
