Inserts a RichTextBox merge field into the current location in the text.
[Visual Basic]
Public Sub InsertField( _
ByVal fieldName As String _
)
[C#]
public void InsertField(
string fieldName
);
Parameters
- fieldName
- Specifies a unique name to be used when to reference this field in the ReplaceField method.
Remarks
You can use the InsertField method to create mail-merged content when the text is added to the RichTextBox control at run time. Inserting a mail-merge field adds brackets around the field name and sets the text to protected.
Example
[C#]
private void ghCustomerID_Format(object sender, System.EventArgs eArgs)
{
this.rtf.ReplaceField("CompanyName", m_companyName);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("ContactName", m_contactName);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("AddressLine", m_addressLine);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("City", m_city);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("Region", m_region);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("Country", m_country);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("PostalCode", m_postalCode);
this.rtf.ReplaceField("Date", System.DateTime.Today.Date.ToString());
this.rtf.InsertField("CustomerID");
} |
