Hi guys does anyone know about the msnger text field? what type of control it is?

HTML apears to not be supported using tags, sResult = "<b>foo</b>" e.g

Can anyone shed some light on this?

use msgplus constant for bold

code:

---

sResult = nCCBold & "foo " & nCCBold

---

It wasent rly bold i was after, that was just my html thing. Ultimatly its to do with img's and embeded active x, posible????

images maybe, embedded activex i highly doubt

Wouldnt that be a serious security risk?

yea, i was also very doubtful of the activex idea but you never know so images? they have emotics so would seem posible, the html way does not work...

Any suggestions?

I think i found my answer here http://www.codeproject.com/richedit/AnimatedEmoti...p=0&select=1084393

Aparently rich edit can have com objects, problem = this is c++ not VB

Ah well, maybe i can work it out for VB
