...I've used Lebans rtf.ocx (www.lebans.com) in several apps now and am 
really pleased with it's reliability, simplicity, and avoidance of 
versioning issues ...although Items 5 & 6 are not native, there are ready 
solutions to do them in Access without another ocx ...dl the install and 
samples from his site and take a look, its all free and lebans writes solid 
code that won't screw with you ...plus he readily answers support/design 
questions about it on the ms.access.public news group.
