Memo-text and FmtMemo-text in the DBGrid-display

Long texts or large quantities of text obviously will not properly display in limited cell size datagrid display.
This certainly is true for formatted text and invariably for RTF-formatted text (FmtMemo), whatever stored in standard Memo fields or in the specialized FmtMemo fields.

This way, Memo text by standard displays in af DBGrid as e.g.:

MEMOversal

and if empty as:

MemoMinusc

However, to improve overview on tables with many records, displaying short leading parts of the memo text in each standard cell will meet this demand as selected from the Options menu.

This feature is available for standard Memo text only.
RTF-formatted text will still display as [FMTMEMO]:
MemoFMT

Editing Memo and FmtMemo

Editing Memo or FmtMemo texts still has to done via the popup forms by double clicking the selected cell.
