Rich Text Problem - 1000's of pages print???

edited November 2005 in General
I have noticed a problem in which a Rich Text field in a table appears to
cause an infinite page production problem. I stop the print preview after
about 2000 pages of which only about 150 should be valid.

I traced the problem to one record and a Rich text filed in it. I deleted
the contents of the field and the report prints OK. I copied back the saved
field from a cut and paste to MS Word and the error re appears. I can not
see anything wrong in the Rich Text field, but apparently there is some
weird corruption causing an infinite loop in the print preview.

Any ideas as to what may cause this bug.

Thanks,

Austin

    Hi Austin,

    Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you using? How large is the
    RichText document located inside your database? If you create a simple
    report with nothing but a DBRichText component inside the detail band
    connected to that field, do you still get the same behavior?
