Also, From the R> or from the Explorer menu, open the LANCQUEST table and double click on the OBSDET column. This will open the data in the RBase BLOB Editor(which is slightly different from the one displayed when you double click varchar data in a form).
If you would please Toggle between the TEXT tab and the RICH TEXT tab at the top, you will see the data, both with and without the formatting codes. All those strange characters you were seeing was as the result of my error causing some of the formatting codes to display in the form, which with the correction I sent you should be OK now. All that is required to make Rich Text is to be certain that a FILE has a minimum number of components to make it a file. This would be the HEADER, DOCUMENT and that these are described correctly, with the appropriate balanced curly braces, which is what I accomplished in the example I sent, which was based on the data you provided. If you create RTF from another source other than RBase, then I cannot guarantee the same results, but so long as you are working within RBase, everything should be OK.
