I have two questions about using embedded reports. First, is it possible to display an embedded report in a Rich Text Field. I am using a RTF to display selected output from a form that will have 2-3 embedded reports and need to include them in the output.
Are you asking if it is possible to roll up the text fields from a child table up into a single field on the parent record?
I'm sorry but I do not understand the second question. You may have to give an example in words.

- I am trying to use the output/contents from the embedded report, in this case a list of contact data, and display that data in an RTF. My first foolish attempt was adding the report link to the RTF. That idea displayed nothing at all, which made more sense after thinking about it for a moment.
I'll need to address the other question later, I have an urgent matter to address.

------------------------------- MarkShnier__YouIf you are trying to roll up text data from a child table to be displayed in a single field on a parent record, then on the child table you van make a field which concatenates all the fields together into a string.
Then you can use a combined text summary field to roll up the unique strings up to the parent.
Then you can use this formula to convert that to a vertical list for use an in Rich Text formula field.
SerachAndReplace(ToText([My Combined Text Summary Field])," ; ", "<br>")
