WinForms and Silverlight Rich Text Editing - the DevExpress RTF Control

You have probably in one fell swoop eradicated the need for us to have Microsoft Office installed on about 4000+ agents machines :)

legendary!!!!

Oh my, it is beautiful!

Question: Does it handle collections, i.e. like a report detail band?

Looks AMAZING! Can't wait!!

oh one more question... can you use a simple object as a datasource?

Will it have table support???

This looks amazing, finally!

Now, add this control and functionality to the report designer and you have a winning combo all the way :)

Very cool...  Do they have to be "Database Fields"?  Or can we use business objects as well?

Cool.  Are custom document properties {DOCPROPERTY "CustomerAccountNumber"} supported as well?

Looks great!  Just a quick thought:  it looks like the fields are not sorted alphabetically in the pick list.  When you have say 50 fields, it would be critical that this is in alphabetical order so that you can find the one that want quickly.

I believe the .2 release is supposed to include read-only table support correct?  What version of read only will this be?  

Can I import an existing table and have it displayed?  (assuming 'yes')

Can I import an existing table and modify the cell contents?

Can I import an existing table and save it to another RTF document?

If it could produce a pdf output file as a result - would be a real killer for our app, esp if you could specify conditional formatting/inclusion/exclusion of fields/paragraphs etc!

Fantastic!

You're just about to put my toe back in a few doors - or at least reduce the dependancies on MS Word and it's nasty object model.

It looks great!

You created a working text editing tool within a few months while the guys of TX TextControl struggle since many years and about 8 major releases to handle initial design flaws (but didn't make it so far).

Well done.

I really hope the custom fields are also possible.

Since table only available for HTML Editor ,

Will it HTML Editor support mail merge?

People at work really are going to think I'm a genius now - thanks so much! Presumably where "database fields" is mentioned above, we can just as easily use a custom data source (i.e. a bindinglist of x)? Not really a problem either way - I'd quite happily create temporary tables on a local db if it'll let me access this kind of functionality. Wonderful.

Looks good. But will it support:

1. master/detail detail.. datasets

2. mailmerge for html

3. mailmerge for xaml

4. output/export the result as xaml (for out silverlight project)

How far off is the beta? and where is it downloaded from.

And how long after that will it be released?

Are the mail merge features something that are only in development at this point???  I haven't seen any documentation on the site about the abilities in the products. I've been tasked to come up with a document manager, and I would love to get them off the word requirements.

We're just about to release v2009.2 and it would be a good idea to have an "accumulator"
