Is there a good Text/Word control?

[Guest]

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).

Look like all web controls. Anything for winforms?

Wow I must be tired tonight ...

http://www.textcontrol.com/ is the one I use but it is not open source ...
nor is it free (does a good job though) also supports other formats such as
html, pdf, etc

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

I believe he is looking for a windows forms editor.
