Well, you can't do it without 3rd party controls, because it's not built into the framework.

A textbox similar to "WordPad" with all formatting controls.

To answer your question, there is no built in Rich Textbox in the ASP.NET Framework. If you want a Rich Textbox, you will have to use a 3rd party control.

Hi,
There are two sets of controls with .net framework. One that work with Windows Forms. Another that work with Web pages.

The control "RichTextBox" is meant to work with Windows Forms. Hence it is not available in Web technologies.

However, you can create your own control that works like RichTextBox with javascript and DHTML. but it is a tough task.
