dbmemo & print to file...
hi all,
i am using rbent7 and delphi 5. when an end-user creates a report and goes
into the 'print to file setup', the dbmemo components that are on the report
are not available for selection. the user would like to save 'comments' to a
text file, but i cannot find a way to get rb to allow the blob fields to be
included in a 'print to file'.
can any tell me if there is a way around this? also, out of curiousity, why
are these fields omitted in the first place?
thanks,
stacey

Memos are not supported in the TextFileDevice. As a work-around, you could
use a DBText component with WordWrap set to True.
