How to format

edited October 2003 in General
I have a requirment to print a series of DBRichText components in a table
layout. What I need is:

[RichTextA] [DBRichTextA1] [DBRichTextA2] [DBRichTextA3]
[RichTextB] [DBRichTextB1] [DBRichTextB2] [DBRichTextB3]
[RichTextC] [DBRichTextC1] [DBRichTextC2] [DBRichTextC3]
[RichTextD] [DBRichTextD1] [DBRichTextD2] [DBRichTextD3]

I need to shift the start of each row relative to the largest rich text
field in the row above it... All of row B should start on the same line...
the same for row C and D. If possible, I would also like to be able to draw
a grid around the richtext fields - to give it a table appearance.

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help.

    Hi Joe,

    Try placing each row of RichText components inside a TppRegion component,
    setting each region to ShiftRelativeTo the preceding one. Also, by placing
    simple rectangles around each RichText, with their ShiftWithParent property
    to True, you will get the table appearance you are after.
