How can I allow users to make their text bold or underlined, for example?

And is there a way for them to do a spell check?

Thank you,

You can make "rich text" fields.

Use "rich text" fields. In the Binding tab you have to choose the data format XHTML. At the time you fill out the rich text field you can activate additional text functions with STRG+E.

Thank you. A follow-up question though: I have been exporting the data to Excel (a CSV file), and I don't see the formats in the data responses. How do I maintain the formats in the export? (Is this possible in Excel, Access, or SPSS?)

Thanks so much!
