I have two templates that are filled out in a standard order.

The first template contains information as XHTML in a Rich Text Box.

In the second template I would like to load the XHTML value from the first template into a Rich text box. I have no problem setting all of this up however the value displayed in the second template from the first template losses all formatting.

 I have seen some posts about having to create custom code to accomplish this however I cannot find an example of this. I am using 2007 without compatibility to 2003 so the DOM related suggestions will not work.

 Thanks for any help!!!

Here we are. IP2003, C#.

 

insertRichText(@"<h1>foo</h1>", "//aRichTextField");

public void insertRichText(string richText, string xPathForInsertion)

        {

            //Declarations

            StringBuilder sb;

            IXMLDOMNode xNodeTarget;

            Encoding encoding;

            string htmlPrefix;

            string htmlSuffix;

 

            //Assignments

            xNodeTarget = thisXDocument.DOM.documentElement.selectSingleNode(xPathForInsertion);

            sb = new StringBuilder();

            encoding = Encoding.UTF8;

            htmlPrefix = @"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC ""-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN""><html><head><meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=""text/html; charset={0}""></head><body><!--StartFragment-->";

            htmlSuffix = @"<!--EndFragment--></body></html>";

            htmlPrefix = string.Format(htmlPrefix, encoding.WebName);

            htmlSuffix = string.Format(htmlSuffix, encoding.WebName);

 

            //Add the top to the clip

            sb.Append(htmlPrefix);

 

            //Add the content to the clip

            sb.Append(richText);

 

            //Add the bottom to the clip

            sb.Append(htmlSuffix);

 

            //Add the clip to the clipboard

            System.Windows.Forms.DataObject clipDO = new System.Windows.Forms.DataObject();

            clipDO.SetData(System.Windows.Forms.DataFormats.Html, sb.ToString());

            System.Windows.Forms.Clipboard.SetDataObject(clipDO, true);

 

            //Select field element

            thisXDocument.View.SelectText(xNodeTarget, Type.Missing);

 

            //Paste into element

            thisXDocument.View.ExecuteAction("Paste", Type.Missing);

        }
