Anybody out there have any info on a good commercial RTF parser ?

MS Word is the first that springs to mind, but a company called Sub-Systems also sell an RTF editor, and you can buy the source - but beware it is written in C, and every variable is a #define, which makes things interesting with the debugger! :mad: Steve. Even if you're not paranoid, they might still be watching you.

One really nice improvement in VC7 is a tooltip that shows the #define statement for a macro when you're in the debugger. Beauty, eh.

Now your asking too much. John whilst on the subject of programming, following a few of your threads - Question are you a full/part/hobby programmer, forgive me if this is a rude question, but you stated that you wouldn't be able to afford VS7 'cos it cost so much. If your a hobbiest your doing damn fine and asking the right questions. Norm

Well, yes - by macro I mean whatever the substitution is - so if I #define TIM 8 the tooltip shows "#define TIM 8" (which helps clue you in that this is not a var) - this means you can see all the WM_ stuff etc. Real cool - though of course as good little programmers we're not supposed to care what these are. :)

Expanding constants? I dunno, if they can expand a #define, they should be able to do the same thing for constants. :) I actually work as a programmer (apparantly as long as Microsoft allows it), and I do it at home as well in an effort to stay as current as possible without having to spend any money. The boss is balking at the new cost of MSDN because we have no intention (at work) of moving beyond VC6 in the near or even moderate future. We simply have too much code to consider the switch at this time. However, this pretty much makes the MSDN subscription WAY over-priced considering our development goals. At home, I doubt if my wife would be happy when I go to her and say "Hey honey, I want to subscribe to MSDN again, and it's only $1000." She will probably squeeze off a loaf in utter amazement. Many things change when you own the house you're living in. :( With the cost of Microsoft tools, I'm going to have to switch to programming for Linux at home. Maybe I'll get lucky and I'll find a local company who needs Linux software written for in-house use. That's the only viable way to make money as a linux programmer right now.

What kind of constants do you mean? consts and enums should show in VC 6... The diff I like is that they've gotten the preprocessor into the mix in the ide. VNice.
