RTF reader 1

[Zech]

Hi,

I am wondering whether there is an OLE object or API that I can use to read and display rtf format. Thanks.

Both are exist.

An ActiveX for RTF is called "Microsoft Rich Textbox Control". The OLEClass name is "RICHTEXT.RichtextCtrl"

For RTF API programming, look here:
(bunch of "SendMessage" API with "EM_..." for message parameter )

Hope that helps

Uh oh ... I got another problem now. My rich edit control can't display pictures embedded in an RTF document.

Any idea how to do this?

Thanks! ^^

To use pictures in your apps in RTF, you must have riched20.dll on your PC ( you can get the latest version of it at

http://download.microsoft.com/download/6/b/3/6b34f4c7-44e6-4d85-91d9-1acf9479da7d/orktools.exe

and use instructions at

to install it) then have a look at some code samples (again on Robert Dunn's brilliant site) at

http://home.att.net/~robertdunn/CodeSamples/RE30CodeSamples.html

. You will need to use OLE to embed images, so download and look at the code samples in

Good luck
