[RBASE-L] - Re: Font Listing

Hi Mike, Yes, this particular use is for display only.  I appreciate the pointer to the code for the how to in the RichEdit Tutor...that is a whole additional question that is not too far in the future for me!   All the best, Ted >>> MikeB<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 4/24/2008 10:46 AM >>> Ted,   You do realize the font will be for "display" only.  DbMemo won't retain the font in the saved data.  If you want to retain font and formatting, use DbRichEdit over a VarChar DataType.   Also, there is a fair amount of code "How To" in the RichEdit Tutor download at: http://www.rbasecommunity.com/   Item # 10 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ted Lienhard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <rbase-l@rbase.com> Sent: Thursday, April 24, 2008 1:30 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Font Listing Hi Razzak, Thanks so much!  That is perfect for my project.

Ted, Here's how: 01. At the R> prompt or in a command file:      PLUGIN RFontPicker.RBL |vFontName 02. Select the appropriate font from the list of available fonts 03. Click on [OK] button      The resulting vFontName will return the exact name of the      selected font. That's all there is to it!
