Printing Rich Text File

edited June 2006 in General
Been using Report Builder a long time and really like it. I don't think
this can be done but maybe I am wrong. I am using the latest release.

Is there a way to have RB print a rich text file at the end of a report? I
am not speaking of a rich text memo but rather an .rtf file (or other type
of file) that exist on the drive.

We develope maintenance management software and users want to print rtf
specs and instructions when they print a work order.

Thanks,
Bob

    Hi Bob,

    ReportBuilder does not have any built-in features to do this however you
    might explore possibly using one of the Delphi objects such as TPrinter or
    TRichEdit to print your .rtf file after a report has been printed. (perhaps
    doing so in the AfterPrint event).
