Hi,

I'm displaying the content of an RTF file quite happily and want to display a specific line as a title using a static control.

I therefore want to remove unwanted rtf information from the start of the string. My string is as below.

"{\f1\fs20
\par }{\b\f1\cf13 my string to display"

Is there a function to do this, or can you point me to where I can strip the text so all I display is "my string to display"?

TIA

Tony

Here you go:
ITextServices::TxGetText Method[^]

Implement a "dummy" ITextHost[^] use a memory dc for the TxGetDC[^] method

Get the ITextServices[^] using CreateTextServices[^]
