RTF to TEXT in sql server
- by user360109
I have a RTF field in my SQL 2005 table, I need to convert it to Text and display it.
After a quick research I got the following method...
create function dbo.RTF2TXT(@in varchar(8000)) RETURNS varchar(8000) AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @object int
DECLARE @hr int
DECLARE @out varchar(8000)
-- Create an object that points to the SQL Server
EXEC @hr = sp_OACreate 'RICHTEXT.RichtextCtrl', @object OUT
EXEC @hr = sp_OASetProperty @object, 'TextRTF', @in
EXEC @hr = sp_OAGetProperty @object, 'Text', @out OUT
EXEC @hr = sp_OADestroy @object
return @out
END
GO
select dbo.RTF2TXT('{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1252\uc1 aaa}')
But Here I am getting only NULL as result...
What could be the issue, please suggest
Thanks
