    Hey @MarieSpence1986 

     

    That is because the content you are entering is getting saved for the current session only. If you want to default the value in the editor, you need to update the "Default" property of the Rich Text Editor control.

     

    Hope this Helps!

    Thanks this does help but that would mean i need to do html.  I wish i could just copy and paste all text with formatting on the screen.

     

    I can do labels but this will take a long time.

    Hi @MarieSpence1986 

     

    In case you are looking for a way to show data in HTML design and extract plain text out if it, you can use the below expression to get the text from an HTML Text control:

     

    PlainText(HtmlText1.HtmlText)

    HtmlText1 is the name of HTML Text control.

     

    Hope this Helps!
