Here's what I have:

in the OnPrint event

var

  lppDBRV: TppDBRichView;

  lpl: TppDataPipeline;

  lfld: TField;

begin

  if Sender is TppDBRichView then

  begin

    lppdbRV := TppDBRichView(Sender);

    lpl := lppdbRV.DataPipeline;

    lfld := TppDBPipeline(lpl).DataSource.DataSet.FieldByName(lppdbRV.DataField);

    RvHtmlImporter1.RichView := lppdbRV.RichView;

    RvHtmlImporter1.LoadHtml(lfld.AsString+'testing');

    lppdbRV.RichView.Format;

  end;

end;

The problem, is the result appears to be over-written by the population of

the TppDBRichView from the field.  The above approach works fine with a DBRichView

component, navigating a dataset and using

  RvHtmlImporter1.RichView := BRichView1;

  RvHtmlImporter1.LoadHtml(ADODataSet1.FieldByName('Description').AsString);

  DBRichView1.Format;

in the AfterScroll event of the dataset.  Any ideas on how to make this work

using the TppDBRichView?
