Sergey, thanks for your help thus far.  I've got some very complicated forms

working with the smarttags,  I save the field info in the tags, works great!

My only problem now is inserting these Memo fields.

I tried deleting the field and then inserting the stream, but get nothing

inserted when call rve.RVData.InsertRVFFromStream(vStream, ItemIndex):

I traced the problem into TCustomRVData.InsertRVFFromStream_, where the

following code aborts:

          rstHeader:

            begin

              if not RVFReadHeader...)  then

                abort; {error}

I think my problem may be because the field is the only item in a table

cell, ItemNo = 0 and I've just deleted it.  If you can't see an obvious fix,

maybe I should insert one line at a time?  I've used your FillFields

example, so can you suggest a way to insert one line at a time in an empty

cell using the RVData of the cell?
