>>lortf=CREATEOBJECT("richtext.richtextctrl")
>>lortf.TextRTF = m.myRTFtextdata
>>m.lcPlainText = lortf.Text
>>?m.lcPlainText

>>and the same for IE to parse HTML. If not, is there anyway to pass a variable or variable contents to IE.Navigate intead of URL or file name?

>>loIE   = CREATEOBJECT("InternetExplorer.Application")

>>DO WHILE loIE.Busy OR loIE.ReadyState <> 4
>>	DOEVENTS
>>ENDDO
>>m.PlainText2 = loIE.Document.documentElement.innertext
>>?m.PlainText2
