Justfied alignment in MS Access

Does anybody know whether it is possible to align text control in a MS Access
Report both to the left and to the right (justified alignment, as in MS Word?)

Hi, LPC.

Set the control's TextAlign property to "Distribute".

Thanks, but I´ve tried the Distribute alignment. That is not what I want,
since it really "distributes" evenly the characters on a line. I want it to
distribute WORDS, NOT CHARACTERS.

Sorry, LPC. General, Left, Right, Center, and Distribute are the only canned
options. You could, though, output your report to Word (Tools, Office Links,
Publish It With Microsoft Word), and apply the justification there.

Good luck.

Many thanks again. Actually I´ve found a reply from this URL:

Have a look at it, for it really helped me to fix the problem. The only
thing I have doubt now is that I don´t see any option to select Fonts and
Text Size in the Active-X. Hope this is useful to you too.
Regards,

LPC,

Thanks for the link. Leave it to Stephen Lebans--the man is a true
programming wizard. He's regular around the site, and very helpful. I'm
sure he can help you figure out whatever's not working.

Thanks again.
