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.
