Hi,

One of our programs uses a TextBox to view XML, but it's very cumbersome and
doesnt color code or collapse. I'd like to create a viewer of sorts but i
dont know how to begin. Can i inherit from the TextBox control or do i need
to start from scratch?

Thanks
Jason
 
Ah cool. Well i would prefer mainly color-coding. The box must be editable.

The WebBrowser control isnt editable, is it?
 
What do you mean?

Sounds like this project is going to be difficult.
 
Well, i'm willing to put the effort into it. I would just like to know where
to begin. Simply enough, i want a editable box that can color-code XML. I
dont care about the code collapsing feature. That would be wayy too much work.

So any hints on how to begin?
