Is there any documentation about DB Memo, and Variable Memo, in the report designer? I could use a fast short course on these two, with which I am totally unfamiliar (so I'm behind the curve); A Variable Memo might work for a report I'm designing, but I have no idea of how to do the job.
Dick, Help | Reference Index | How To | Reports | Report Controls Take a look at: Variable Controls | Variable Memo (with full explanation) Database Controls | DB Memo (with full explanation) For a sample report that demonstrates the use of Variable or DB Memo controls, take a look at the "AllColumns" report in Running R:BASE Your Way! (Part 14). In addition, you may also refer to a technical document at: From The Edge: http://www.razzak.com/fte/ Document Name: Handling Stretchables in Report Designer And, if you are looking for a report control that handles the built-in Mail-Merge feature in R:BASE, then, take a look at the "Rich Text" control. Database: RRBYW14 Report: CustomFormLetter (Using Rich Text Control for Mail Merge) Sample Applications: http://www.razzak.com/sampleapplications/ Application: Using Rich Text Control for Mail Merge Hope that helps! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
