"When the solution is simple, God is answering"- Albert Einstein
Recently we were asked to implement a embedded text editor in a control which could facilitate user for text formatting including features such as bold, italic,font, color etc. The first reaction was can-we-do-it types with nothing popping in mind (Yeah, thought of Email Templates view never occurred ).But with some help of support web solution turned out to be much much simpler.
We can achieve this by using control of type "RTCEmbedded". This control type provides an embedded text editor which supports below html tag:
However there are certain caveats while using this type:
1 - Control doesn't turn out grey in case of read only conditions.
2 - Throws an error when reaching field length and clears out everything forcing user to renter everything.
3 - It is not currently possible to paste text and graphics (such as graph or image) within such controls.
4 - We can't use this column directly in SQL based reporting purpose without appropriate parsing.
Happy Crunching!!

- Bold < STRONG>
- italic <EM>
- Underline <U>
- Ordered list <OL>
- List items <LI>
- <P>
- <FONT>
- <BLOCKQUOTE >
