Re: htmlText question

I guess to be more specific, I need to mix text and htmltext on the same line of the field Here's what seems to work after some experimentation: set the text of line x of thefield to "xyz" -- the non-html stuff set the htmltext of char (the length of line x of field "Z")+1 to \ (the length of

Re: htmlText question

Hi Kay, I think I misunderstood your solution. As you say, it's quite possible to mix text and htmltext in a field, even on the same line so I think I'm on the right track now. Thanks Pete lcSQL Software On Mon, Sep 30, 2013 at 3:30 PM, Kay C Lan wrote: > New stack, 1 f

Re: htmlText question

Thanks Kay. This seems like I need to know the html tags that are in the text, which I don't. Now if the htmlText property recognized the tag, I'd be home free! Pete lcSQL Software On Mon, Sep 30, 2013 at 3:47 PM, Kay C Lan wrote: > Actually, using the textStyle is ano

Hi Mark, I was hoping it would something easy like that but what I see is plus signs between the words, apostrophes replaced with %27, etc. Pete lcSQL Software On Mon, Sep 30, 2013 at 3:26 PM, Mark Wieder wrote: > Peter- > > Monday, September 30, 2013, 3:17:30 PM, you wr
