Hi Alan

Do I understand correctly - TRichView is TIB_XXX compatible?

TIB_RichEdit can be used for formatting text: Bold, Colors etc.?

I have placed a TIB_RichEdit connected with TIB_query on form. I have tried with BLOB field and Varchar. I don't see any properties to set for the RichEdit giving me formatting capability. So I've run the program and I can not see difference between the RichEdit functionality and a memo. I have worked with InfoPower where if I remember correctly one double clicked the memo and a text editor was provided. It is this functionality I am looking for.

Bye
Harvey
