Without Microsoft Office
Posted: Wed Jun 10, 2020 07:44 AM

I have an RTF document to which I have to change variables online. I can't use the Word object because the user probably doesn't have Microsoft Office. so I can't use the wordreplace function that made EMG.
How could I solve it?
in the rtf document I have strings like #variablename#
I not remember there is a function on Rtf class to change variables on a document Rtf
Have you a sample test ?

Silvio,

Since a RTF-file is a ASCII-file, why don't you open it by using FOPEN, fiind you variable by using FSEEK, write it by using FWRITE and close your file by using FCLOSE?
So you don't need Word to replace your variables.
