Printing HTML files

edited May 2003 in General
Hi,

I'm a RB 7 Enterprise for Delphi 5.

I have a text field in a table. Some of records, in this text field, are ASC
II file and others are HTML files.

How can I print this fields in a report.

I've used a Memo field component (TppDBMemo) to show de files. The ASC II
files were printed fine, but the HTML files shows all the internals tags in
the report.

Thanks in advance.

    The memo controls simply print ascii text. It will read the tags as ascii
    text because that is what they are in its eyes. You'll have to preprocess
    tha data in order to parse out the data inside the tags. You may want to
    research finding a component to do something like this. Surf
    http://www.trichview.com/ to see if this component can be made to render
    HTML inside a report. They have a component for use inside of RB. There is a
    Friends | RCL section on our website that you will want to check out for all
    the add-on components that are compatible with RB.
