Has anyone ever tried to use Rich Text in a memo field? Is it possible?

Or, how can I get colored text into a specific field in my grid?

I was thinking a memo field but... not working.

Hi! Yes, this can be done with the EditorsToolbox 1.75 plugin (C. Giebel).
I attach a sample project. This is a universal directory (user database for anything with a small sample database).

Thanks for your reply. I've been going through your code and I'm not sure this is exactly what I'm looking for...
Unfortunately I don't speak Russian but I see that with the Editors Toolbox I can view Rich Text in a text box (teGetText; teSetText) but not in the database grid.

I think what I'm wanting is just one of the limitations of DBPro.

You can store RTF in the database, but show it in the plugin object.
You can search the database using the zmToRTF (Peter Pavlov) plugin. It converts ASCII code (this is the first command parameter) into RTF characters (the variable name for the result is specified in the second command parameter).
