It is recommended to use 'Rich Text' as much as possible, that's why I never used 'Plain Text'. Today, I was putting some Rich Text on a Form, and when I went to Preview, the text was thrown all over the Form. So, I tried 'Plain Text', problem solved.

I was having trouble with Formatted text, the Bullit would not change to the color of the text. Today I tried 'Plain Text', problem solved.

I have problems with Rich Text in regards to browser spacing, I bet 'Plain Text' will eliminate these problems..hmmm.....τΏτ:rolleyes:

I use plaint text more than rich text for various reasons. If you are only going to be have text without it being in bold or italics, plain text is best. If you are going to use special fonts, then rich text. But the best course is almost always plain text, in my opinion.
