I have a memo feild in SQL that stores rich text, so that it looks like *{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 MS Sans Serif;}}*. I need to display the text so that it keeps all its formatting when displayed on a report. Can anyone help in doing this without making a temp file and pointing an ole object to the temp file?

Thanks in Advance,

Matt

I have already tried using the rich text activeX control, but when used on a report it fails to show anything (including a border).
