RTF Files

rbuser

Hi chaps, I hope you can help me with this one...

I need to create a report that attaches a terms and condition page to the
end of the report...naturally the user wants this page formatted etc.

So I thought I would use an RTF comp.

Can somebody give any advice how to do this.

My ideal solution would be to save the formated text in my Firebird database
and therefore create an end user report with the DB aware RB RichText
control.

trouble is that I don't know how to get the data into the database in a
formated way..the user will not need to do this just the admin team using
IBExpert.

I also wanted to have a go at using the nondb aware control and loadfromfile
an RTF file as this could be another solution if the database way is not
possible.

tried to do this in RAP but keep getting errors so again any advice or
pointers here would be great.

Thanks for all your help

Cheers

Mark

Mark,

With v9, the mailmerge option on the RTF object allows you to choose your
database fields and format them while editing the object. From RAP, use the
LoadFromFile method to file the object from a RTF file.
