    I am wondering if it is possible to import and translate an RTF string.  I will be getting a string like the one below from the database.  I want to be able to import the string and show the formatted document. Please let me know if I need to clarify this question.

    {\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\deff0\deflang1033{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 Arial;}{\f1\fnil Arial;}}
    {\*\generator Msftedit 5.41.21.2510;}\viewkind4\uc1\pard\sl240\slmult1\fs20 RE:\tab Patient: <#A:PATIENTNAME>\f1\par
    \tab\f0 Account Number: <#A:ACCOUNTCODE>\f1\par
    \par
    \par
    \f0 <#A:LETTERDATE>\f1\par

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting us with this!

    Please refer to this help article explaining format providers and how they can be used. In your case you can import the string with RtfFormatProvider and show the resulting document in RadRichTextBox.

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks for your response!  I was able to figure this one out.  I actually opened another post which is somewhat similar but not so basic.  Perhaps you have some insight on the export process?
