Is there a way to load DIRECTLY WinWord Documents to rvEditor[br][br]
Background:[br]
The rvf files are very much smaller than Word files. This property I would like to use to archive Word files[br][br]
I do not want[br]
to load a DOC-file with Winword[br]
save it by Winword as RTF file and[br]
load it with rvEditor.

PS: What ist wrong using [br] for next line

Note that when converting MS Word document to RVF you looses all features that are not supported by TRichView.

There are no methods for loading doc or docx files directly, sorry.
You can use converters to import them (using TRVOfficeConverter component), however the result will be worse comparing to importing RTF saved/copied by MS Word.
Probably, you can use OLE automation (TWordApplication, TWordDocument) to save a document to a temporal RTF file (or the Clipboard) and then import it in TRichView. But I do not have an example, sorry.

Thank you for your answere.

If you do not know what time you should: Would that no be a further round out?

Sorry, I do not understand the question

A joke (Scherz)

'Falls du mal nicht weißt was du machen sollst ...'
oder 'Solltest du mal "Saure Gurkenzeit haben"...' (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauregurkenzeit)

... dann würde die Erweiterung (.doc to .rvf) dein Programm weiter abrunden.

I have found that many users do not publish the solution of their question. That's a shame, because I think that the last article should be the solution of a question.. Therefore, I present MY solution for my question to all those who are interested.

In the meantime, I have had a "Saure Gurkenzeit" and I found Sergey's "Office Converter" (in folder "... \ Richview \ Demos \ Delphi \ Office Converter"). I ingrated the few lines (to solve my problem) in his program "REditor.exe" (... \ Richview \ Demos \ Delphi \ Editors \ Editor 2 integrated) for training.

As far as I can see, you use hard-coded indices of converters (like 6, 5, 0).
This is wrong, because different computers may have different sets of converters: the same converter may have different index on different computers, or it may be not installed at all.
So, to find a converter for the required format, you need to search in ImportConverters or ExportConverters to find the index of the converter to use. And you cannot search for the Name property of converters, because they may be different on different computers (localized).

For example, the HTML converter, both import and export, is implemented in HTML32.CNV. You can search for inclusion of 'HTML32.CNV' in Path property of the converter.

I hope that's what you mean.
Perhaps someone find a better way as "unit uDatTyp" on a new Form

Oddly enough are "memo.canChange and memo.Change" (for working with "TDBRichViewEdit") are written to "officeSpeichern" instead to "officeLaden".
Sorry.

Here are the corrected procedures.

begin

//memo.canChange; //nur wenn mit TDBRichViewEdit
r:= rvc.ImportRV(od.FileName, memo, wahl-2 ; //wahl bezieht sich auf "rvc.GetExportFilter.ItemIndex"
if not r then Application.MessageBox('Error','Error',0);
pb.Visible := False;
//memo.change; //nur wenn mit TDBRichViewEdit
memo.Format; //nur wenn TRichViewEdit
//if query1.state in [dsEdit, dsInsert] then query1.post; //nur bei TDBRichViewEdit
form1.Caption:= 'Konvertierte Office-Datei * '+od.FileName;
memo.SetFocus;
end;

procedure TForm1.officeSpeichern(wahl: integer);
var r: Boolean;
begin
pb.Visible := True;
r:= rvc.ExportRV(sd.FileName, memo, wahl-2 ); //wahl bezieht sich auf "rvc.GetExportFilter.ItemIndex"
if not r then Application.MessageBox('Error','Error',0);
pb.Visible := False;
form1.Caption:= 'Konvertierte Office-Datei * '+sd.FileName;
memo.SetFocus;
end;
