Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

Hi, is there any tutorial teaching us how to use the Rich text?

I am unable to link my database (MsSql 2005 with asp.net) to the textbox.

Even if I can link, all the words turned out to be so funny & strange.
In my software, I have use freetextbox to created the rich text. But, I am unable to make the reports come out as the way I had design in freetextbox.

Please advice. Desperately need to solve this problem.
Thanks...

To transfer Rtf text from the file stream or memory stream please in the GetValue event of the RichText component, write the following code:

In your sample HTML tags were used. These tags are not supported in Stimulsoft Reports.Net .

Thank you.

C#

System.IO.StreamReader reader = new System.IO.StreamReader("d:\\script.rtf");
string str = reader.ReadToEnd();
reader.Close();
e.Value = System.Xml.XmlConvert.EncodeName(StiRichText.PackRtf(str));


VB

Dim Reader As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader("d:\\script.rtf")
Dim Str As String = Reader.ReadToEnd()
Reader.Close()
e.Value = System.Xml.XmlConvert.EncodeName(StiRichText.PackRtf(Str))

Thank you.

Is there a way to have ("d:\\script.rtf") to be a variable & link it to my database field "ProductID"?
Or can we link it to one of the column fields in the datasources of StimulReport. Sorry for my poor english & expression.
what I meant is something like d:\\ProductID.rtf where ProductID is from the datasource of stimulreport.

Thanks for your wonderful help.

If i right understand, you can use proeprty DataColumn of RichText. This property allow fill richtext with rtf which stored in database.

Thank you.
