The RTF text can be stored in a normal memo field (avoid general fields at all costs), the RTF data is just ASCII text, nothing special, and the RTF data can be reported using a .FRX and the report listener from Moxiedata http://www.moxiedata.com/ in VFP 9.0. Using the Moxie report listener is drop dead simple and just works. Crystal reports can be used to report the RTF data but has serious limitations and with v10 locks up when the string is greater than 64k. If you are going to use the Moxie report listener be sure to use SP1 for VFP 9.0 or you will have troubles with color output.
