Exporting to RTF using a stream

[Philip]

I use crystal reports and use RTF Text interpretation for a description field and store the value of this description RTF in an MS SQL Database Text Column. I need to allow my users to create / edit this description via a web portal and am using the RadEditor. The import of RTF is fine using a memory stream, but I need to use the export to RTF and not have it download a file to the user, but use the exported RTF to store in the database field. Is there a way to override the export to export to a memory stream instead of a file for download?

Thanks,

Philip Carter

Hi Philip

At this point of time I donot know if Telerik control has such a function.

But this could work

byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(contents);
MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(byteArray);

Hope this works

I found the answer and just in case anyone else needs it, I'm posting it here. And I want to say that Telerik is the best Web Toolkit I have ever used, there's always a way to do what I want to do. THANKS TELERIK!

​RTFDoc is a hidden field in my page. Since the e.ExportOutput is a string for RTF Exports, this worked out great

Protected Sub RadEditor1_ExportContent(sender As Object, e As Telerik.Web.UI.EditorExportingArgs) Handles RadEditor1.ExportContent

RTFDoc.Value = e.ExportOutput
If RTFDoc.Value > "" Then
encryption.PerformUpdateQuery("Update ProjectPhases set rtfDescription = null, Description = '" & Replace(RTFDoc.Value, "'", "''") & "', Description = " & Replace(RadEditor1.Text, "'", "''") & "' where ProjectPhaseID = " & CurrentPhaseID.Value)
End If

End Sub
