Printing DataWindow in text format (DOS format) on W2K env.
Hello, I�d like to print a DataWindow report in text format (DOS format) on Windows 2000 environment. In Win9x environment I usually printed my report in dot-matrix printer. It worked pretty well, but when I changed the whole environment (Win9x to Win2K) I got this problem (I send my report to be printed in a dot-matrix printer and I got no answer by the printer). Does anyone know how to fix it? Does anyone had this problem before? I'm using PB 7.03 build 10047. TIA, Antonio. ---== Posted via the PFCGuide Web Newsreader ==--- http://www.pfcguide.com/_newsgroups/grou...

Formatted Text in a DataWindow
My client wants to send out "email bills" to his customers. In his proposed email bill format, he has a bar-chart graph (no problem) and he wants to include a section where he can send out informational messages in "formatted" text (i.e. anything other than plain text). I've searched and tried numerous ways to try to embed formatted text into his "datawindow email bill", but the only solution I came up with (which is really ugly...) is to have him create the text in Word, take a screen print, then crop it. I just can't find any other way to accom...

datawindow column text formatting
Our customer needs to paint some words in the address field off customers in the datawindow. For example if they live in a spesific street down st for example the rows that have down st in their address columns will be modified and down st will be highlighted. my simple trial fails. regards emre. dw_1.SetItem(3, "address",String("sik cad"," [red]@-@@@@@@")) If you want the text in a single area to have different formatting, you need to look at using RTF rather that regular edit controls.

saving a formatted text from a datawindow
I have a report in a datawindow that I want to save in a format that appears like the datawindow displays so that I can send the report in an email. Doing saveas() using html format is the closest I can get but it is not close enough. The PB examples saves it in PSR format, but how many email recipients will have Infomaker with which to read it? Does anybody have a way to do this? Curt, Have a look at the DataWindow plug-in... it uses your default browser to display PSR files. It works pretty well and is easy to set up. You can download it from: https://support.sybase....

DataWindow format
I want to set an edit for one of my columns in a DW. I do not want to make the format on the database though. I see there are several ways to create a edit of color change, date format, etc. What I want to do is display the word "no edit needed" if a serial number (varchar) ends in 'rnd'. Does anyone know how to write that in the DW format? I see some examples but they are very generic for strings. would it be something like @@@@@@@@@@rnd "no edit needed"; ?????????????? can I also say if last 3 char = rnd write 'no ed...' Thanks cor...

How can I save formatted text from a datawindow.
I am trying to create formatted documents by merging data from 2 ASA8 tables and saving them in a 3rd table. Using PB 9.0.1. I need to have bold and underlined text in these documents Stu; You can share the DW data with a RTF control. In the RTF control (vs the DWO) you can save the RTF data present as a Blob column in your database. Then just re-retrieve the Blob RTF text and paste it (look at the PasteRTF method) back in your DWO or RTF control as required. HTH Regards ...

Rich Text Formatting / Text Formatting Toolbar
Is there a default control in ASP.NET or in VS .NET in general that I can use to help edit textboxes and have a formatting toolbar at the top similar to the microsoft word formatting toolbar (lets you make fonts bold, select font size, font type, etc. -- basic formatting stuff and maybe insert pictures/attach files to the text box). If you reply to this message, you'll see what i'm talking about at the top of the reply box. There isn't a default one in asp.net. The one used here is called FreeTextBox. It's a free custom control that you can download. I don't think it comes with emotico...
