Thanks Mike
John said something like this too. Most of this RTF formatted
text stuff is new to me and will take some time for me to digest.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - VarChar Data and RTF
If you are going to store RTF snippets, you must get the RTF source from a
control that contains formatted (or not) RTF.
What will prevent the reassembly of RTF snippets is IF the snippet
originated as an RTF that was saved to disk as this is when the file
header information for the complete file goes with it.
If you try to concantenate _complete_ file descriptions, it will fail
because only the first "complete" file description in the RTF will be
parsed (sorta like finding RETURN in the middle of an EEP), so to be
successful in the storage of your snippets, they will have to be CUT or
COPYed from valid RTF in a RTF capable container.
