>>>I have an application in which one of the modules is collections. Many times when a collection is made, the client sends the payment receipt issued by the bank by mail. And many times the user who records customer payments needs to copy the content of the email and many times the email contains writing with various font types and images.

Thanks Victor, so your apps have that copy and paste functionality? I hope I could have the time to do it. Any special condition to take into account when working with the Richt Text control? Besides that, what version of SQL Server do you use? On the other hand, in VFP what type of data should I use in VFP? Memo or Memo binary?
