Hello everyone,

Can anyone please help me, I need to display a list of fields from the database onto my windows form. Now my problem is that the data in the fields is of type rich text.

What control can I use that I can display this list of fields in rich text format. All controls except a datagridview.

Should I inherit from a control and make a custom one? if so anyone has any links that can get me started.

Thank you any help would be greatly appreciated.

Solution 1

How about converting from RTF to HTML (3rd party library) and then using a WebControl to display the fragments, added together with HR lines in between.

Another idea could be to concatenate the RTF fragments into one RTF fragment and display in a standard RTF text box.

Good idea but my problem is that I need the user to be able to choose one or more of these items.
