get and set the htmltext of the field instead of just the text of the field.

Great! and thanks. Now for a dumb question:
how do I get the text to display as formatted instead of with <tags>?

Sorry - I should have been more explicit...

-- get the htmltext of the source field into a variable
put the htmltext of field 1 into tHTMLText

-- then store it into the destination field
set the htmltext of field 2 to tHTMLText
