moving text with formats

[adventuresofgreg]

Hi: This might be a simple question, but I can't seem to find an easy answer in the userguide. I would like to move some formatted text (type sizes, typestyles, etc) from a field into another field, but the styles and formatting information is not moving with the text. Is there an easy way of maintaining the styles, etc?

thanks
Greg

Hi Greg,

yep, use "the htmltext of fld..." (or maybe "the RTFTEXT of fld ...")
...
set the htmltext of fld "boring" to the htmltext of fld "field with nice formatted text and stuff"
...
Et voila, styled text

YA! perfect. thats worked. Now, is it possible to include images in the text field?? I woudl like to be able to paste in small graphics into the field and have those scroll with the text.

Hi there,

I remember contributing to a thread which looked at including images in text fields:
