Inheritance into rich text field

Hi all,

I have a question regarding inheritance.

I know that I can inheret from a selected document into a field.

But I want to inherit into a richtext field,

rich text field can be either (Editable or Computed) When i set the rich text field to Editable, everything is inherited into the field (but the user can edit it–i don’t want this) but when i make the rich text field computed, the user cannot edit it yes, but not all the text is copied into the rich text…

I’m trying to do this to the mail body in the mail template

Thanks,

Jennifer

I don’t know why they should be different.

Does the text you inherit come from a rich text field?

How long is it?

Are you testing the two ways with no other differences besides computed vs. editable, e.g. are you inheriting from the same document?

Could be “Inherit entire document into Rich Text Field”, which would do a renderToRTItem (essentially); that would have a greater capacity than the formula does.
