Keeping the text format

[Dixie]

I have no problems getting text in and out of a MySQL db.... Could someone tell me though how to put in 'formatted' text... ie I want to put in say, three paragraphs, and when I get it out of the db it still is in the paragraph form, to coin a phrase..

thanks

Hi Dixie,

I would store "the htmltext of fld xyz" into the database and restore it back later.
This way, all the formatting will be preserved!

Klaus...

Thanks for the reply... I had been looking at 'HTMLtext'... but thought that there might be another way...I have been lazy just inputting the text via NaviCat... Still, whipping up a little stack to use 'HTMLText', to make the entries should be no problem... (I'll let the cat have a go!)

be well
