Rich text support in VAdmin and V4MD?

[Bart Pietercil]

Recalling my director days, you can store richtext in director and the  
ask for the html of that member. This produces something that can be  
stored in a valentina varchar(provinding it is big enough) or a text  
field.
Restoring means having retrieving the field from the db and then 'set  
mymember.html = the_retrieved_db_text'.

Mind you I stopped at Director 8
