(I deleted the original posting because of its size; please send large

attachments to me by e-mail).

All that I can say - something went completely wrong.

The most possible reason - the document content and styles were completely

desyncronized.

White-on-red is used to display text styles with invalid indices (>=

RVStyle.TextStyles.Count).

Red border is used for paragraphs in the same way.

And it looks like TRichView does not understand that it's a Unicode text

data, and tries to display it as ANSI text (or vice versa)

Things to check:

- make sure that you use field type allowing to store arbitrary binary data

(and does not do any character filtering/conversion)

- make sure that "Allow adding styles dynamically" option is set ("Settings"

in the designtime component context menu); consequences of not including

this options do not look so impressive, though;

- make sure that you do not have any code (called after document is loaded)

that produces this result :)
