    yeah I see that, but logic dictates that if there is no Roomlist(dlgId) then its a pm window else it must be a room.

    btw I found a nice little delphi sample on streaming RTF text to other applications, it not too far off what we use now but there is some intersting flags and callbacks

    It is in Delphi but im sure you will no problems understanding it..

    the only I need to check out for the shared memory part is the reference to “CommonMemoryUnit” its not a default unit in delphi

    Bothe the code and data need to be in the other application, I’ve posted it long time ago

    Another way to save paltalk text

    I do remember that code you posted now that you mentioned it. I have tried the code I posted on paltalk and it works very good, but for me personally I don’t see the need for the overhead as my current method does the job, Currently I have to convert the rtf to a simple memory stream to keep the formatting when sending to paltalk, then I can use the standard WM_SETTEXT to actually send the formatted text.

     

    procedure TPalWindow.SendPalRTF(aRichEdit: TRichedit);
var
  memStream: TMemoryStream;
  strList: TStringList;
begin
    memStream := TMemoryStream.Create;
    strList := TStringList.Create;
    try
      memStream.Clear;
      aRichEdit.Lines.SaveToStream(memStream);
      memStream.Position := 0;
      strList.Clear;
      strList.LoadFromStream(memStream);
      SendText(AnsiString(strList.Text));
    finally
      memStream.Free;
      strList.Free;
    end;
end;

    My code was to stream the text from pal not to pal to preserve the text the user entered without using the clipboard.
    The code you have posted does not stream the text to the other application and I’m not sure WM_SETTEXT will work by default with every application.
