I need to do Mail Merge from a flex application. Creating the database piece is easy. I have also been able to create the merge with htmlText from a RichTextEditor component.
The problem of course is printing. I tried flexReport, and everything is ducky except that I can't find anyway to force pagebreaks programmatically within flexReport. If I understood the component pieces that do the HTML rendering within flexReport I would try to force it to honor the <p style="pageBreakAfter:always"> tag. I posted to the flexReport Google Code bug list over a week ago with no response as of yet. At any rate I still need to do MailMerge. I am not opposed to most any solution. If there is a component that would convert flex created HTML to RTF, or a MS DOC file, that would be OK as well. I tried taking the HTML generated by the flex RichTextEditor, and importing it into MS Word, and the fonts are massive, and changing the font within the RichTextEditor component had no affect on what MS Word produced. Does anyone have any ideas? Paul
