If you Yep, i isolate the needed textportion, put in a hidden doc , save and load the stream from the newly saved doc file. This is acetable slowly, but retrieving the stored steream from the datbase is the most time consuming thing ! As i am not a prof coder , i looked around for getting a stream out off the clipboard or out off a Xtransferable object but no luckso far For iamges we can get a stream from the internal storage oPictures.getByName(mFiles(j)).getInputStream()) and then to store them directly in a doc i found this code : REM Author: Stephan Wunderlich. Two lines added by ms777 and completed by Fernand Dim oShape Dim oProvider 'GraphicProvider service. oShape = oDoc.createInstance(com.sun.star.drawing.GraphicObjectShape) oGraphic = oDoc.createInstance(com.sun.star.text.GraphicObject) oDoc.getDrawPage().add(oShape) oProvider = createUnoService(com.sun.star.graphic.GraphicProvider) Dim oProps(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue oProps(0).Name = InputStream oProps(0).Value = oStream ' oProps(0).Name = URL ' oProps(0).Value = sGraphicURL oShape.Graphic = oProvider.queryGraphic(oProps()) oGraphic.GraphicUrl = oShape.GraphicUrl ' Insert at the current cursor location oDOc.text.insertTextContent(oDoc.getCurrentController().getViewCursor(), oGraphic, false) Maybe there is a more clever brain around who can get a stream out off the clibboard o a Xtranferable object ??

Re: [dba-dev] How to store formated text in OO base
Marc and Peter, Thanks for your responses, Normally for copying images and formated text portions from OO- docs or non-OO documents I simply uses the uno:copy with the dispatcher. This approach works fine I will now investigate the XTransferable stuff for a suposed more cleaner code :-). But I still has some questions: - how do i Store Cliboard or XTransferable content in to the database ? - how do i call it back from the base into the clibboard or in to a XTransferable object ? When having the database content in the cliboard or a in a XTransferable object, then the missing off a proper Form Field can been resolved with showing the database content in a frame or Cell. and using a writerdoc as a form.

Re: [dba-dev] How to store formated text in OO base
Hi Peter, The field doesn't support clipboard or transferable actions with formatted text. Worth an RFE? Sure. (Though I admit the thing I would want to fix before for this control is the inability to store its content in a database field ...)

Re: [dba-dev] How to store formated text in OO base
OK I found a complex :-) solution using temp RTF files, but should works select the formated text portion and put it in a new empty OO_source.odf. save OO_source.odf to RTF_temp.rtf usng the RTF-Export Filter Read with simpleFileAcces the content of RTF_source.rtf and put it in a simple Varchar database field. Put the content of f the VarChar field into a simple text file with rtf extension insert the text.rtf into the OO- doc using the RTF- ImportFilter any ideas for shortening this process ?
