Solved Text formatting in a report with numbering

[Sodslaw]

im having an issues on diplaying text when access wraps text, with numbering or bullets.
The text is curretly set to rich text and this is the issue im having....

my report looks like this...

Target text Alignment	The safety requirements are based on the assumption that the dock leveller(s) are regularly maintained by competent persons to the instructions of the manufacturer and that the operating person has been instructed in the use of the dock leveller (as stated in BS EN 1998:2009).
Current Access text Alignment	2. The safety requirements are based on the assumption that the dock leveller(s) are regularly maintained by competent persons to the instructions of the manufacturer and that the operating person has been instructed in the use of the dock leveller (as stated in BS EN 1998:2009).

Q. Any ideas how to acheive the example in 1 above so that when an access report wraps the text, its all aligned?

Can you insert non-breaking spaces into the html of the rich text where you want to avoid line breaks?

It's  

with an initial ampersand and final semicolon.

Thanks for the Clue. to solve it i needed to a conjuction of html TAGS
@ the Start of each line "<div><font color=black>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"
and at the end "</font></div>"
to get the effect...
<div><font color=black>1. The safety requirements are based on the assumption that the dock leveller(s) are regularly</font></div>

<div><font color=black>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;maintained by competent persons to the instructions of the manufacturer and that the operating</font></div>

<div><font color=black>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;person has been instructed in the use of the dock leveller (as stated in BS EN 1998:2009).</font></div>

all sorted. Thanks!

So, how are you inserting the tags you need to format the way you want? This sounds like a pretty tedious manual process.

if this is ACCESS, then you can put the number in a separate column, although this work is of course for the WORD template, the bookmarks of which can be filled programmatically

a long MEMO field can be divided into paragraphs and put a subordinate table
