When deploying a solution that includes the End User Report Designer (Professional Edition only), you must include the version of the Microsoft Rich Text Edit Control DLL which is installed with ActiveReports in a location like this: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Data Dynamics\ActiveReports for .NET 3.0\riched20.dll.

If you do not deploy Product version 4 (File version 5.40.11.2210) or higher of riched20.dll with the End User Report Designer, it might load a version that is unable to render RTF tables correctly in edit mode of the RichText control.

This file should be placed in the same directory as the ActiveReports assemblies.

To deploy this DLL

  1. Open the Registry Editor.
  2. Expand the treeview to My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Data Dynamics\ActiveReports for .NET 3.0.
  3. Right-click in the pane to the right, and choose New > String Value.
  4. Name the new String Value RtfPath.
  5. Double-click RtfPath, and type in the path to the newer version of riched20.dll.
