   Formatted Text

   Hi,   
      
   I have a VB 6 application running of SQL2000. All reports generated from the   
   app is done in Crystal and then exported as well. My problem is that I need   
   to created a free flow type report with formatted text that is then exported   
   and displayed in a Crystal report. Formatting will include basic bullets,   
   tabs, bold, underlined and so on. The problem is that when you use Crystal,   
   the information first needs to be saved in the database and then displayed.   
   I dont know of any other meathod. Secondly, what control can I use in VB6 to   
   capture the text from the user and give them the ability to format the text   
   and then displey it in the same manner in Crystal.   
      
   Thanks
