Report to rtf- Right to left formatting

[marlan]

Hi all you experts!

A client wants to convert a report I designed for him, to a word document so he can edit it.

The report's Report.Orientation Property is set to 1 - Right-to-Left
Relevant TextBox.ReadingOrder Properties set to 2 - Right-to-Left,
and relevant TextBox.TextAlign Properties are set to 3 - Right.

When exported to RTF, the document is LTR and text alignment is to the left (even though the page actual layout is seems RTL, just like the report).

Is there a way to enforce RTL layout in the exported Word file?

I am using Acc2010.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Iv'e added a sample word file. You can see it looks RTL, but is actually LTR. Set it as RTL - and it gets all disordered. Now multiply this by 47 pages...

need help please. Thanks!

where is the attached file ?
I'll be happy to take a look

If you want you can send me the db so I can try it to see if I have the same problem.

I never exported as RTF before. I did a test now and it looked OK.

Tried uploading again. Did it work this time?
No, Won't upload a RTF.
I'll convert to Doc.

OK, maybe now? Seems fine.

TIA!

look OK to me.
Document is RTL alligned.

attached a screen capture.


*** Edit ***
I see what you are talking about.
I'm having the same thing if I export from Access to RTF and open in word.
Looks Right aligned, but paragraphs are actually Left aligned.

I have similar issues when exporting from Business Object to Excel


Fuck RTL
