Variable components available to MailMerge in RichText

edited March 2014 in General
Hello

I was really surprised to discover that only database fields are
available and that the OnMailMerge event in RAP is the only way to get
calculations, system variable values, etc. into a RichText memo. One for
the wish list?

    Hi Paul,

    The MailMerge feature is designed for data connectivity only. If you
    would like to manually edit a RichText, you can use the
    TppCustomRichText routines and properties to do so.

    Paragraph
    SelText
    SelectAll
    SelStart
    SelLength

    We will consider enhancing MailMerge to include other input options for
    a future release.


    Best Regards,

    Would be a good thing to have system-variables like current-date,
    current-page and total-pages also available.
