I’d like to be able to insert multiple hyperlinks into a single memo field – is there any way to do this, or will I have to use multiple hyperlink fields instead?

Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don't do it. |

A memo field is plain text. Although you could enter multiple URLs in a memo field, they won’t act as hyperlinks.
A hyperlink field can contain only a single hyperlink.
So you’ll have to use multiple hyperlink fields.
Thanks Hans – I presumed that may be the case.
I understand from a brief view of Access 2007 that it has rich text in the memo fields, so I would presume it may be possible with that – not that I’m going to switch just to resolve this issue!
