Wow! 2023 and I have to strip rtf code again the old fashioned way.

Funny thing too, I loaded the database with fields containing rtf data into SqliteExpertPersonal and tried to display a field and it doesn't even show the data, just the rtf encoding. Guess my tools have not kept pace with development.

Bugger me sideways with a fresh halibut. My trick of using the editorgadget to strip rtf data from a database record no longer works. Not in 6.02 anyway so I guess it's the brick wall for my face for now.

Is it that we can't display RTF within EditorGadget in 6.02 and beyond, or that we just can't paste RTF into it?

And people wonder why anthropologists study the mating habits of Fangles.

Oso, the data worked once my tired brain figured out to use beta 9 and which was the right flag to use.

But somewhere during the import, some strange characters must have made it into the imported database (Standard GetDataBaseString etc, nothing fancy) and at least 15 records are not being retrieved by the new program as if there is something invisible in some of the record fields.

Looked up the faulty records but SqliteExpert Personal is showing nothing strange that should not be there in each fields.

Ah, got it. I'd assumed you were referring to this related topic from last week, about RFT in the EditorGadget... viewtopic.php?t=82554
