Hi All,

Is it possible to put bullets in Text Box ? Also that Text Box has facility to be edited by end user.

Regards,

Manish Kumar

Manish, preceed your text with chr(8226), which is a bullet:
=chr(8226) & 'any text here'

As for the editing by user - not possible directly. You can create some workaround, for example use the same variable in an input box and in the text box.

Michael, it is really good to see the bullet. But how or from where to get the ASCII code for different symbols. It is possible to find the ASCII code for other keys in the keyboard by using ord("any letter/number/symbol'). is there any way to find for symbols too??

In fact, I used ord(). Copied a bullet into this function from the chartacter map.
