I need to create a table in an RTF file. However I am not familiar with RΤF. Here is an example of a text file that these RTF files are supposed to replace:
GENERAL JOURNAL
Page 1
Date Description Post Ref Debit Credit
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2011
Dec 1 Utilities Expense 512 250.00
Cash 111 250.00
Paid electric bill for November,
Check No. 1234
2 Cash 111 35.00
Accounts Receivable / Customer Name 115/√ 30.00
Interest Income 412 5.00
Receipt of payment on account
from Customer, Check No. 5678
. . .
The table is supposed to have borders, but I don't know how to do this either. Some cells have to have special borders on the bottom as in this file:
Company Name
Schedule of Accounts Receivable
December 31, 2011
Name Balance
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adams, John 354.24
Jefferson, Thomas 58.35
Washington, George 754.58
--------
1167.17
========
I am aware of the \cell, \row etc., but I cannot figure out how to use them properly as the documentation that I have found is not very good. Please help.
This site is useful: http://www.pindari.com/rtf3.html
{\rtf1\ansi\deff0
\trowd
\cellx1000
\cellx2000
\cellx3000
\intbl cell 1\cell
\intbl cell 2\cell
\intbl cell 3\cell
\row
}
This will give:
---------------------------
|cell 1 | cell 2 | cell 3 |
---------------------------
A row is delimted with \trowd ... \row
Each cell ends with \cell
\cellx determines the right side of the corresponding cell in twips
Editing directly in RTF becomes quickly unreadable. Pehaps this practical approach works better: - Create an example mock-up ( in Excel or Word ) using unique identifiers as placeholders ( example "(P1)" ) - Then save as RTF - Open the RTF in notepad - copy the RTF codes "as is" and replace the placeholders with actual values in your program
