Rich text and Intraweb

rbuser

I have another issue with a report in rb 14.4.

I have a report that has richtext in it and it is being printed to pdf.

If I generate the report from a win32 application everything looks good.

If I generate the report from a Standalone Intraweb application it will
not print the richtext on the report.

Any ideas

Hi

Not sure if the following helps any but I have also had problems with Rich
Text (in general - not Report Builder specific) where the Rich Text
component was not visible (particularly on win32 service applications).

The only way I found round the problem, so far, is to use the TRichView
components from www.trichview.com.

1. Try adding the following code. For a threaded app, COM must be
initialized for each thread. (The RB RichText relies upon TRichEdit which
relies upon the MS RichEd.dll which is COM based. )

ActiveX.CoInitialize(nil);

try
// then print the report
finally
ActiveX.CoUnInitialize;
end;

2. Try updating to RB 14.05, we had one fix that improved threading support
for RichText. (I don't think this is your issue, but this fix will help
performance)
