How to work with rich text in Access 2013 - ms-access-2013

I have a ms access 2013 database, Into my database I have a table, it looks samthing so :
my text1 Is an Ole Object date type, here's a rtf text.
elemple :
{\rtf1 {\rtlch\fcs1 \af31507 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid14841988 Hello}}
if I write this text into rtf file and I open it with Word, the file Word have write "Hello" text. How can I create with msAccess 2013 an rtf file, or to show into a report this column text ?? Which is the best way to show this column text??? Thank you a lot

Probably your best option for the future would be to
Upgrade the database from Access 2003 (.mdb) to Access 2013 (.accdb).
Add a new column named Text1_NEW as Long Text (previously known as Memo) with its Text Format property set to Rich Text.
Convert the RTF-encoded text from the Text1 field into HTML-encoded text and save it in the Text1_NEW field.
Once you've verified that the conversion was successful, delete the Text1 field and rename the Text1_NEW field to Text1.
Then you could use the "rich text" Long Text field with a regular Text Box control in Access 2013.
For an idea as to how you might actually convert the RTF-encoded text to HTML-encoded text, see my other answer here. That answer uses Word to save an RTF document to plain text, but it could just as easily save the document as HTML. Do note, however, that Word tends to produce rather bloated HTML documents, so check the results of a small test before performing a wholesale conversion.

Node wont save if text field contains word "having"

When I try to save edited node Drupal just reset field values and do nothing without any error message or log.
I entered text word by word and found that word "having" cause such behavior.
I'm using ckeditor to edit and filter text value and I guess that this module source of problem. As if I save text as plain text there are no issues.
Right now I don't know what to do next to track, dig deeper and isolate this issue...
PS. In ckeditor format settings I checked only two options:
Limit allowed HTML tags and correct faulty HTML
Convert line breaks into HTML (i.e. br and p)

Display Access data with image paths in Word document

I would like to make a Word product catalog from data stored in an Access 2007 database. I can of course use the "mail merge" function in Word for the text data, but I dont know how to make the images show up! They are they stored as file paths in Access and jpg-files in a directory on the hard drive. The images should have a special size, be right aligned to the text paragraphs so that the text is wrapping on the left side (see attached image).
This is possible, but works better in older versions of Word. Unfortunately, you don't mention which version you're using...
Anyway, the key to the question is to use an IncludePicture field to bring the picture in; pass the file path to the field using the MergeField (nested fields). You can find more information on the internet, for example: http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/mergfaq1.htm#DBPic
The problem with an IncludePicture field is that it can't be wrapped. But if your version of Word is not too old, tables CAN wrap, so you put the IncludePicture field into a table that's a single cell. Position the table, wrap it, etc.

How to remove link's text from html table

I want to extract the plain text in the html table (that is, I don't want to grab the information including red arrow),
However, I tried to get the plain text by cell.text, it will get the unnecessary hyperlinks' text
"\n central tendency1 \n "
I expected that I can get
"central tendency"
So I tried cell.text.strip.downcase.gsub!(/\d/, ""),
However the gsub method will also clear the information in the green rectangle.
Is there any way to grab the text in html excepting the text of hyperlink ?
here's the html link I need to parse
You can remove all the links before converting to text with nokogiri:
table = doc.css(".page table")[0]
table.css("a").each(&:remove)
Edit: Alternatively, you can have a regexp that only removes numbers at the end of a string and if they're preceded by a letter, which seems like it may work in this specific case but cannot be relied upon to work in similar cases:
cell.text.strip.downcase.gsub(/(?<=\w)\d$/, "")

Visual Studio: Use csv file for "Find Text" validation in web performance test

I can use csv files to enter data into input field after a test is recorded. I was wondering if csv file could be used for "Find Text" validation field. I don't see options to add csv file so I have directly hardcode text be checked. If I could add a csv file then I would just need to change the csv file once the website texts are changed. Could this be done by using codedUI test?
Thank you
The fields of a data source can be used in many places within a Web Performance Test. There are two main ways.
In the properties panel for the call of the validation rule, click in the value field for the required property. You should get a box allowing the data source field to be chosen.
Alternatively enter text similar to the following into the field
{{DataSource1.YourFileName#csv.FieldName}}
Note the doubled curly braces {{ and }} around the full data source string. You can also add extra text to this sort of entry, eg
Some text{{DataSource1.YourFileName#csv.FieldName}}and even more text

Searchable PDF Files (Image+Text PDF) validation

I am checking if a PDF document is searchable if I can get any text from every single page in a PDF.
But checking every page seems to take forever when I am trying to extract text from a PDF that contains more than 500~2000 pages.
Is it possible for a PDF to contain text for one page but not in the rest?
What I am trying to do here is that, if a first page of PDF contains text, then it is a searchable PDF else not..
Yes, it is very possible for a PDF to contain text on one page but not the rest. You could very well have a 500 page PDF that contains images on the first 499 pages, but contain text on the last page.
Unless you want to open the PDF file yourself and scan it for text/text operations, you will need to use an existing third-party PDF library that allows you to extract text from a PDF.
Also, see Ferruccio's response to a related question, which is to use the IFilter interface, specifically made for search indexing and text extraction.
Try this version of Searcharoo, which lets you search Word and PDF documents.
