Bill,
RTF is also just a text file with special control characters labeled with a
beginning "\". You can go to a Microsoft site for a good start on the syntax
for writing RTFs.

I've written simple RTFs using FileIO xtra. I stored everything in a TEXT
member and then wrote it to a file. It was really useful for writing files
that would print nicely, without having to buy an xtra.
