Wonderful.. One question about a RT Edit Box. I had predefined text in a normal edit box somthinng like Name +space(20-len(name)) + name2 + space(20-len(name2)) + chr(13) + etc....


It worked fine in a regular edit box.. but the richtext edit box doesn't seem to like chr(13). I have the multiline property set to .t. Thanks again.
