I need to save the contents of a richtextbox in a MS Access database, I can get the textbox to change fonts,etc.. but when its saved into the database, all the formatting is removed. Would I need to save the file as binary or something. Any ideas appreciated.

Have you tried the MEMO type field to save the rtf text?

On the otherhand, make sure you are getting the TEXT+FORMATTING from your textbox.
