Migrating from PB 11.5 using a datawindow column style type of RichText to PB 2019 R2, the runtime does not display these columns? Running thru the IDE of 2019 R2 it show properly, not not after EXE created? Triple checked i had all the DLLs, but just will not display from EXE/PBDs. What am i missing? 

Dropdown List box does not show display value when...
RibbonBar Control ComboBox

Hi Dean;

  PB "under the hood" can use one of two 3rd party controls that support the RTE Control and the RT DW for rich text processing. Check the type that you are using in your PB App's "Application Painter" and then proceed to the PB Help and search for the keyword "runtime" to get to the section on what DLL's go with what 3rd party control (TE vs TX). You might have a mismatch there - which would then explain your deployment's runtime issue. HTH

Regards ... Chris

Thanks Chris.

We finally found a solution and after a fourth review of the DLLs and running a program to see which DLLs were invoked when it did work through the IDE, we saw PODOFO.DLL was loaded and was not part of the documentation as needed for RichText runtime at: 

https://docs.appeon.com/pb2019/application_techniques/ch35s04.html

 

So we needed these additional files + PODOFO.DLL and it now works. 

pbrtc190.dll, tp4ole15.ocx, tp15.dll, tp15_bmp.flt, tp15_css.dll, tp15_doc.dll, tp15_dox.dll, tp15_gif.flt, tp15_htm.dll, tp15_ic.dll, tp15_ic.ini, tp15_jpg.flt, tp15_obj.dll, tp15_pdf.dll, tp15_png.flt, tp15_rtf.dll, tp15_tif.flt, tp15_tls.dll, tp15_wmf.flt, tp15_wnd.dll

Rich text support with the OEM version of TX Text Control

Hi Dean ... FYI, your looking at the wrong release. This DLL is listed in the R3 documentation, as follows;

https://docs.appeon.com/pb2019r3/application_techniques/ch09s02.html#d0e24197

Super glad that you found the issue though! :-)

Regards ... Chris
