Problems Hiding Rich Text

[Sandy Seegers]

I'm trying to hide some rich text and am having some problems.

First of all, during document edit, I would like to display a rich text field
based on the value of another 'trigger' field. This seems to work ok until I
actually put data in the RTF. As soon as I do, if the value of the trigger
field changes causing the the RTF to be hidden again, this message appears on
the message bar:

"Due to an error, this paragraph can not be displayed".

On top of that, I always want to display the RTF in browse (read) mode, but
can't seem to make that happen with the hide when formula.

ANy thoughts?

Thanx in advance

Rich text fields store their own set of hide-when preferences
independent of the form. As a result if you change the hide-when
formula for an existing rich text field it won't work.

I encountered NUMEROUS problems with hide when formulae when using
complex docs.......

I think that this was due to conficting control codes in the document
but because they are invisible it is almost impossible to clean up a
form once it has problems......
