The error message Gordon is referring to says,

"OLE error code 0x8004006d: Object doesn't support lViewObject interface."

Error messages can be copied by CTRL+C.

I've never used the RichText control. I just happened to know about the
existence of this KB article describing it's use.

Maybe someone else can help more.

Here is the error I get when running the sample form.

I sent this directly to you as I did not know if I
could send attachments to the list.

Hi Cindy,
Actually, the RTF file is in the general field but I am unable to get the
report to print the information from the general field.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gordon

Hi Cindy,

I have already tried this from MS. I could not get it to work.

I have a form called receipt and a dbf table called receipt1 with
a memo field and a general field. Memo field: receipt General Field
receipt1
I have an rtf file called receipt.rtf

I need to have the report form print the text from the rtf file via the
general
field in the dbf table.

I am unable to append the rtf file to the general field.
I tried this command but it does not work.

APPEND GENERAL receiptxt1 FROM receipt.rtf CLASS "RICHTEXT.RICHTEXTCTRL.1"

Any help you can give would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Gordon
