Depends on what you want to do.
If you mean to search the text of the blob with the rich-edit, yes. If
the methods to do that are not published (and I think they are
published) you can publish them manually in the source. TRichEdit offers
everything for you to search text.
If you mean to use the RichEdit in the sql-search-options like you can
do with memo's, you can, too.
You _can_ do SQL-Search in blobs subtype 1, and therefore in IB_Memo
easily (mind you, it is very slow).
A RichText has many tags enclosed in it and is normally saved in a blob
subtype 0 (binary)
If you save the rich-text as Blob Subtype 1, IB will be definitely able
to search in it based on plain search-criteria. Beware only of the tags.
If you build a small test-app and let both, an IB_Memo and an
IB_Rich-Text show the same blob subtype 1 and edit the field in the
rich-text, you will see after saving how the text is changed to contain
many cryptic characters and tags. Nethertheless, search will work, only
even slower as with memo's.
