creating rtf - need tables too

[doorbreaker]

hi,

I am currently getting data from my db and creating rtfs with it.

how though do i format layout? I need to create a table with one row and two columns in the rtf - all of the "iewkind4\uc1\pard\b\f0\fs28" style stuff is confusing me no
end.

Does anyone know the syntax to create a table in an rtf?

Thanks in advance

Chris

Look at

http://www.devx.com/asp/Article/17964/1763

More specifically, Page 3 which contains all of the table stuff. Any more questions, just let me know.

Alternatively, you can get components which convert HTML to RTF, so you may want to look into those?

Thanks for the link.

Does anyone see anything wrong with this for a one row - two column table?

objTextFile.WriteLine "\trowd	\trautofit1	\intbl \cellx1 \cellx2 {\test1 \test2} \row}"

I get a corrupted table error in Word.

Thanks

Chris

p.s I hope this is the correct forum....

Ok, this appears to be a bit of a nightmare controlling tables in rtf. Any ideas how to control the width of a table?

I am going to need to print addresses onto labels so I have to be able to control where my data ends up.

Thanks for any help on this issue
