Kathy,

Not sure what your original requirement was but Leban has another html
editing control on his site.  Look at http://www.lebans.com/htmleditor.htm.
Don't know anything about this, have only seen it listed.

Hi William - yeah, I worked with that ...but it seems a bit clumsy to be
going with rtf and then finding ways of converting to html (I did try a few
conversions).

I think it should be simpler to find a control which has an html format
option..........
