Any way to save bold, italic and underlined text from a richedit into a string?

It's kinda critical to the further development of a program I'm working on.

Cheese!

You need to save in RTF format. An RTF edit box has a save event you can trigger, but I don't know if it's implemented in Blue GUI.

You can't save it in a DB string, they are simply unicode. Rich Text has hidden style directives, rather like XML.

Actually, you can store the entire contents of the RTF file as a string if you want, if you have the memory. RTFs are long in length as a string. You just read the entire file as a whole from the RTF and store that into a string variable.
