  • Problem with 2 consecutive Insertpoints

    Hello,

    As I posted it here yesterday, I have the same kind of problem. After more investigations, it seems that the file does not save correctly (using saveToFile()).

    When I open my RTF file with notepad, at the end of the file instead of having what I guess should be :

    Code
    {\field{\*\fldinst{MERGEFIELD Field0 }}<\plain\f0\fs22\cf0 Text0}\plain\f0\fs22\cf0 {\field{\*\fldinst{MERGEFIELD Field1 }}<\plain\f0\fs22\cf0 Text1}}}


    I have :

    Code
    {\field{\*\fldinst{MERGEFIELD Field0 }}<\plain\f0\fs22\cf0 Text0<\plain\f0\fs22\cf0 Text1}}}


    The beginning is similar but there is a missing part at the end.

    I've checked all properties of the TWPRichText component but none seems to impact on the problem.

    Any help would really be appreciated.

    PS : Here is a copy of my message on newswhat forum, sorry for the length of my post.

    I am facing a problem with WPTools 4.x (not sure about the exact version,
    could anyone tell me how to get it ?) in C++ Builder 5. I've found no
    other mention of this kind of issue over the Internet, so I hope someone
    could help me here.

    What I do is quite simple.

    I have a form with a TWPRichText and 3 buttons : "Insert", "Merge" and "Load".

    The "Insert" button adds a mail-merge field with the text "Texti" and the
    field name "Fieldi" (in which i is a number incremented each time one
    click the button).

    The "Merge" button first saves the TWPRichText content in a file and then
    merges the text.

    The "Load" button simply loads again the file.

    ---------------------------------------------------------

    Here are two examples, the first that works right, and the second that
    demonstrates the problem :

    1) I click on "Insert" 3 times, pressing the enter key between each click
    to go on a new line, as to obtain the following text :

    Code
    <Text0   <Text1   <Text2

    2) Then I click the "Merge" button, what results in :

    Code
    <Field0   <Field1   <Field2


    3) Then I click the "Load" button which gives me again :

    Code
    <Text0   <Text1   <Text2


    And so on, that works. But let's see the other case :

    1) I use the "Insert" button and the Enter key to obtain the following text :

    Code
    <Text0<Text1   <Text2


    2) Then here is what I obtain when merging, what seems correct :

    Code
    <Field0<Field1   <Field2


    3) But then when I reload the file, I again have the text as in 1), except
    that the '<' character before "Field1" isn't red (as all insert points
    generally are) but black.
    And if i merge again, I get :

    Code
    <Field0   <Field2


    "<Field1" has disappeared !!!

    And that happens as soon as 2 mail-merge fields are put side by side, what
    means that if I had put a space or any other character between "<Text0"
    and "<Text1", then everything would have gone all right.

    Has anyone met this problem or have a solution ? Is it a bug from WPTools ?

    Thanks for your answers.

    Here is the code executed when I click the "Insert" button :

    Code
    static int i;   WPRichText1->InputField(   '<',                              PERString( "Text" ) + IntToStr( i ),                              PERString( "Field" ) + IntToStr( i ) );   i++;

    Here is the code executed when I click the "Merge" button :

    Code
    WPRichText1->InsertPointAttr->Hidden = false;   WPRichText1->SaveToFile( "test_edition.rtf" );   WPRichText1->MergeText();


    Here is the code executed when I click the "Load" button :

    Code
    WPRichText1->LoadFromFileWithClear("test_edition.rtf");


    And here is the MailMergeGetText function of my TWPRichText :

    Code
    void __fastcall TfrmDossierDevis::WPRichText1MailMergeGetText(
         TObject *Sender, const AnsiString inspname,
         TWPMMInsertTextContents *Contents)
   {
      Contents->StringValue = inspname;
   }
