[Note/VarChar] http://www.rbase.com/rbg76/NoteBLOBViewerEditor_NoteVarChar.jpg . [Multipage Images] http://www.rbase.com/rbg76/NoteBLOBViewerEditor_MultipageImages.jpg So, how is the appropriate tab of the Note/BLOB Viewer/Editor brought up when double-clicking on the NOTE, VARCHAR, BITNOTE, or VARBIT data type column in Data Browser/DB Grid and Forms? Here's the logic behind it: 01. When working with Data Browser/Editor and DB Grids Data Type Note/BLOB Viewer/Editor Tab Page NOTE Note/VarChar VARCHAR Images, RTF, Note/VarChar, Multipage Images BITNOTE Images, RTF, Note/VarChar, Multipage Images VARBIT Images, RTF, Note/VarChar, Multipage Images For image types of DCX, TIFF and GIF, the default tab page is set to Multipage Images. 02. When working with Form Controls in Forms: Form Control Note/BLOB Viewer/Editor Tab Page DB Memo Note/VarChar DB Rich Edit RTF DB Image Images, Multipage Images For image types of DCX, TIFF and GIF, the default tab page is set to Multipage Images.
