[AccessD] Lots of Text in a Form

John:

I think what we're going to do now is put all the resource info on a web 
site.  And just have hyperlinks in the program to various resources pages on 
that site.  That way after the product is published we can still change the 
content every day if needs be.  This field of sleep medicine is really 
fluid.

What do you think of that approach? (I'm installing Front Page 2003 as we 
speak.)

I'm still curious, though, how you output that report to the screen with the 
hyperlinks active.

Thanks and regards,
