RTITEMS and Views

I’ve seen this one in the forum and tried the suggestions, but to no avail. I’m trying to display text from a rich text field in a view column for export to excel. I have a web form which is filled out and a notes client side for display of cummulated results.

So far I’ve tried to set the isSummary property, and I’ve tried to make the field on the client form a text field and keep the web form as a rich text, and I’ve tried

text:=@Abstract([TextOnly];1000;“”;FinalCommentsMarketing);

text

Any Help?

Thanks for the Input!

Hi Ben,There are two approaches: a) avoid the RT (since you dont have it in the client that seems to be an option) or b) get your @Abstract working properly.

I asume your fieldname is Body.

a) Client as is (Text field), Web: Field Body editable, hidden!!! Passsthru HTML where you want your Field to appear: [Computed for Display field with formula: Body]. This will give the user the space needed to enter a lot of stuff.

b) Create a (hidden) Computed field BodyText

@Abstract([TextOnly];1000;“”;“Body”)

Hope that helps
