Hello,

Is there a function to convert a user text to a showable text under Markup Tooltip.
Convert '>' to '>', ...
We use XTP 12.0.2

Not built in. This is VB code I've been using:

Public Function FormatXAMLText(ByVal s As String) As String
s = Replace$(s, "&", "&")
s = Replace$(s, "<", "<")
s = Replace$(s, ">", "&rt;")
s = Replace$(s, Chr(34), """)
s = Replace$(s, "'", "'")
s = Replace$(s, " ", " ")

FormatXAMLText = s
End Function

I've been looking for such a function for years. In PHP you simply call htmlspecialchars(). In MFC it seems you have to implement it yourself. Tedious...

Maybe such a function exists in ATL?
