I am looking for a Free Text Box OCX that will work simlarly to the Rich Text Box but one that I can email the text, using Winsock, and it will appear in the recipients e-mail as it was sent. Any type of OCX that would handle this would be good. It is for E-Mailing a News Letter out to addresses from a Database List in a specialized program. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. E-Mail [email protected]
The RichText box has a property called TextRTF. You send RichTextBox1.TextRTF and at the client, assign this value to the TextRTF property of a richtextbox. All formats will be retained.
Thanks for your reply. What I need though is an OCX that will handle the messaging of an e-mail the same as Outlook Express does. Allowing the user to enter pictures and text and change fonts etc. The recipient will not have a RichTextBox to view it in. They have to view it in their own e-mail program as is. Any other solutions will be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I am developing an application using richtx32.ocx.
I often use RichTextBox1.selText, RichTextBox1.selRTF... and I saw that it behaves differently in Win2K and win9x . If you have experiences about that please help me.
And I can change background color of selected text in Win2K but not in Win9X. Do you know why ?
Thank you.

Thanks for your reply. How do you save in HTML?
There is a new Riched20.dll (richedit 3.0 as they call it) available which has several property enhancements which are not available in the RTB. This dll comes with w2k, office2000 . Go to VBAccelerator.com and check out their richtext control which use the riched20.dll, its worth the while.
