Hello,

If you copied items in the Clipboard/stream/file, you can insert them

multiple times without copying again (if you use streams, do not forget to

set Stream->Position = 0 before each insertion.

There are two main methods of insertion:

1) RVE->InsertRVFFromStreamEd()

Inserts data in the position of caret. This method does not require calling

Format() - it quickly reformats the document itself (quickly - because it

reformats only affected paragraphs). This method requires formatted document

when called, and leaves it formatted after.

This method can be undone.

2) RVE->InsertRVFFromStream()

Inserts data in the specified position. It does not require formatted

document when it is called - so you can use it multiple times and call

Format after:

RVE->ClearUndo(); // InsertRVFFromStream does not update undo buffers

Stream->Position = 0;

RVE->InsertRVFFromStream(...)

Stream->Position = 0;

RVE->InsertRVFFromStream(...)

Stream->Position = 0;

RVE->InsertRVFFromStream(...)

Stream->Position = 0;

RVE->InsertRVFFromStream(...)

RVE->Format();
