not sure if Michael wants to open the editor in app or outside.. By Popup
Editor I am assuming that it will open in app as a Dialog box, So WordPad or
write.exe may not work.. Did u try Google it?.., maybe these guys have it...

Hi Cody,

Actually, what I was looking for was a component that I could include in my
C# 2.0 application. I want to have a richtext field in a data grid, and
then if the user clicks on a button, a dialog pops up that will allow them
to edit the rich text from that field with a simple editor, fonts, bold,
etc.

Do you know where I could find a cheap component like that?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mark,

It looks like that component is for ASP.NET. I need a popup rich-text
editor dialog for a Windows forms application.

Thanks,

Mike

Funny, I had to do the exact same thing and was not able to find something
like what you are asking for.

I did find one or two companies that sold text editing controls but they
were too expensive for what we needed. I our case we were looking for
something that will be a close equivalent to WordPad.

Anyway, we ended up needing to create our own custom control to do that but
you can find something that would cover the *very* basics here:

http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...4522&lngWId=10

Be aware that the sample code of the link above has some bugs and it does
not behave like Word or WordPad, for example if you have a text selected
that has some bold words on it and you click the italic button then
everything will turn italic and you will loose the bold.

Check it out, if you are doing something simple for internal use it may be a
good starting point, if you are doing this for commercial purposes you have
some work to do, it looks like a simple task but it took me a while to make
the damn thing function like a mini WordPad app.

Good luck.

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
