Is there a good Text/Word control?

Hello,

I am writing a text editor in C#. Is there any good and free text control
similar to Word?

Have you looked at the RichTextBox control? It should be on your Toolbox.
Failing that, I do not know of any good "free" such controls except for
ASP.NET (FCKEditor and FreeTextBox, to name a couple).

You may look at a free one http://fckeditor.net/ (I know the name is
controversial), but it is a very good implementation.

Is the link rel="stylesheet" supposed to be real plain text, or would some word processor format such as Word/Pad work? This sample stylesheet seems garbled if downloaded and opened with Notepad, but seems to view right in browser. Could this be a problem, or cause slow loading when applied? A link for this sample "style.css" is on http://users.ntplx.net/~richw/ Thanks for any advice, Rich
