Is there a function Text-Format 2 RTF-Format and visversa and other functions to manage the RTF-Format?
Thanks!

Here is one from my notes. Reinaldo seems to know a lot about it. You might also search the forum if you haven't already.

James, thanks!
A good code! Meanwhile i found all required functions.
Günther,
If you want to convert a RTF into standard text, then using a RichEdit control, you could do this:
oRichEdit:LoadRTF( cRTFText ) // RTF
MsgInfo( oRichEdit:GetText() ) // standard text

Thanks to all!
In the meantime after tests i found, that many problems are waiting for me, using RTF for my project. Now i explored the GTF-Format. This is for me the right way as the complete source is reachable and no DLL is required.
By GTF do you mean "gene transfer format?"

Hi everyone;
Yes GetText() method works best but requires to initialize the object which will require a dialog or window. When working on the background , when pulling text from a Blob field or when no RichText object is needed, then my function GetTextFromRTF() is the only choice.
What is GTF format? Is there a class like RichText(). Please share the code. Thank you.

Reinaldo, GTF is part from FW! See FORMAT GET.
It can handle texts with different textcolors, fonts and aligns word for word or paragraph. RTF is much more complex!

Your function works very well in most cases, but was failing when the rtf contained embedded tables and other objects. Have you improved it recently?

Once we create a richedit control (we can even use a hidden window) it is very easy to convert text to rtf or rtf to text. It is much better to have a function like Reinaldo's which works in all cases.
I am also looking for it there is any way to "render" rtf and html in a rectangle (not a control). I greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Rao,
What do you mean by a rectangle? Just an enclosed area?
Why can't it be a control?
You could probably use a window, dialog, or TPanel object.
