Including external files in generated RT documents
« on: December 04, 2010, 01:47:05 am »
Hi,

the old versions of EA allowed to insert an RTF command in the 'notes' field of a diagram or an element like this:
Code: [Select]
{\field{\*\fldinst
{\insrsid12075035 INCLUDETEXT
"M:\\\\MyDir\\\\MySubdir\\\\DocumentName.rtf"
\\c MSRTF }}
}
This method allowed to obtain an rtf document where the referenced external file was seamlessly included (see my article at: http://www.mcoletti.net/how-to/ea-rtf-en.html).

Later, EA introduced formatting capabilities in the note field of elements. This was a good improvement, but it made the above trick inefficient.
Is there another way to obtain in the generated RTF document an include instruction that brings in another rtf document?
Thanks,

Massimo
