RTF control

[JudyBarer]

I am using the RTF activex control in my vfp 8.0 app. I would like to display in the control text that is formatted based on user input. I have the RFT text strings saved in memo fields of tables and depending on what the user has selected I would like to construct RTF text. just concatenating the strings does not seem to work. How can I do this?

Thanks
Judith

You may have to go with RFT tags.
Look for "Word 2003: Rich Text Format (RTF) Specification, version 1.8"
In this page:

You will find an article (In French )I wrote on how to use in a report, but the concept is the same for the RTF control.
