Lebans RTF2 v 1.8

[Jerry Kirk]

I am evaluating the object for use in our product and have a few questions
for the author and any other users...

1. Is there any sort of spell check capability or could one be added?
2. The RTF format seems to dramatically increase if any sort of images are
included in the document. Is there any way around this either
programmatically or via training of the end-users to only use certain types
of images or add the image in a certain way?
3. Has the object been stable across various Access and Windows OS
installations? It has appeared to be stable in my limited testing, but I
thought I would ask in case anyone had some peculiar experiences.
4. The current RTF control we use sometimes chops a single line of text in
two at a page boundary. I see some sample cod eon Leban's website to break
the document into paragraphs. Should that solve our page boundary problem?

THere are no current plans to integrate a spell checker. YOu would have
to manually or progrmmatically copy the RTF formatted text into MS Word,
spell check and corrent then copy back to Access.

2. The RTF format seems to dramatically increase if any sort of images are
included in the document. Is there any way around this either

Using Bitmap format will still result in bloat but less than other file
types.

3. Has the object been stable across various Access and Windows OS
installations? It has appeared to be stable in my limited testing, but I

Check GoogleGroups. THere are no OS specific issues that I am aware of.

4. The current RTF control we use sometimes chops a single line of text in
two at a page boundary. I see some sample cod eon Leban's website to break
the document into paragraphs.

THis issue is caused by the Access report writer not the ActiveX
control.
