How to use USEEXPRESSBARS?

Hi,

As a new user of WPTools I am very unfamiliar with it.
I'm using Developer Express ExpressBars (version 5.5.6).
I would like to implement a full wordprocessor but using the ExpressBars in stead of the WPToolsBars.

Can anybody give me detailed directions or a sample project on how to implement this?

Thank you very much for your help.

I use ExpressBars.

You need to add WPAction to your form's Uses caluse. This will give you access to the WPRichEdit standard actions to associate with your DevEx TdxBarButtons. I am well happy with the results.

I also use the DevEx Printer dialog but I haven't got it fully sorted yet.

To mimick the font colour and highlighting I use components from TMS and place these in a TdxBarControlContainerItem. They work well.

I tried using the TMS font combo as it looks better than the DevEx offering but I got the odd AE. All is well using the DevEx font combo.

HTH

Thank you very much. I've got it working now.

However I must say that some of the WPTools-dialogs look pretty basic. It would be nice to have some more sofisticated dialogs.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Regards, Stef
