No. RichTextBox does not support viewing DOC files. (If this is what you
want to hear...)

Take a look at the free DSOFRAMER control on the Microsoft Site. Fully
supports doc files. I was doing some work with RTF files and found that
anything aprt from this or word would not display many of my files
correctly. Works very well.

Try following code:
Public Sub InsertWordDocument(ByVal fullFileName As Object Byval rtb as
RichTextBox)
Dim wd As New Word.Application

With wd
.Documents.Open(fullFileName)
.Selection.WholeStory()
.Selection.Copy()

rtb.Paste

.Quit()
End With
wd = Nothing
End Sub
