Can I load an expression from a database field?
I want to save this expression in a varchar field on a SqlServer database

{"The person " + DataSet1.NamePerson + " is nice"}

and set DataColumn property of a textBox with the name of the database field.

I tried but it´s not working. Is there a way to do this?

Hello.

You could use next expression to show expression from the data column:
Thank you.

This is very powerful!! This report tool is really great! Thanks!

Hello

Let us know if you need any additional help.

Thank you.

Can I also use this expression to parse a RichText stored in a database field?

Hello.

You don't need to parse Rich Text. Just specify the column and set the Full Convert Expression property to True.

Thank you.

Did not work.

I tried a simple expression.
First, using the rtf editor in designer like this, and works fine!

My name is {DataSet1.PersonName}

The result in report viewer: My name is Edson


Then I save this rtf expression in a database field like this and set FUll Convert Express = true:

{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1046{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fprq2\fcharset0 Century Gothic;}}
{\colortbl ;\red0\green0\blue0;}
\viewkind4\uc1\pard\li720\qc\cf1\b\f0\fs24 My name is \{DataSet1.PersonName\}\par}

The result in report viewer: My name is {DataSet1.PersonName}
The expression was not evaluated.

Hello,
I am having the same problem and I need to load RTF expressions from database field. I tried to set FullConvert Express = true but is not working.
Do you have a fix for this issue?

Thanks!

Hello.

Unfortunately, we can't change this behavior but we are working on a workaround.
We need more time to prepare an answer for you.

Thank you.
