TppDBRichText with mixed records

rbuser

Delphi 6 Update Pack 2,
ReportBuilder 7.03

Hi,

I have a report with a DBRichText linked to a BlobField.
This Field is sometimes with plain text and sometimes with RTF text, and
when it renders plain text content it uses the text attributes of the last
RTF it printed.
Is there a way to avoid this?
How can I reset those attributes before printing any records?

Thank you in advance,
Massimiliano

Hi Massimiliano,

Take a look at the TextAttributes property of the RichText component. Try
adjusting these attributes before the component is printed.

Also, you could also try placing two components (DBRichText and DBText) and
toggle the visibility of each depending on the data type.

I think the property is SelAttributes, but I cannot change anything of it.
For example this code gives me an error:

Mem_Nota_Comp.SelAttributes.Color := clBlack;

Why?

Massimiliano.

Hi Massimiliano,

What error are you receiving? Do you have Graphics added to your uses
clause. You first need to select the text that you would like to change.
For instance, you could use the SelStart and SelLength to define the amount
of text you want edited.
