WYSIWYG rich text box for C# forms?

[cbmeeks]

Any WYSIWYG text box controls out there for NON-HTML, NON-WEB text
boxes? One that stores the text in XML format would be cool.

Thanks

How about System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox?

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. (what you get when you type in a hurry).

What I'm really looking for is something more detailed/feature-rich
than the RTB. Something that would allow inserting images, multiple
font sizes/boxes, etc. Almost like a small version of Word in a text
box (without having to use or install Word).

Thanks

I can recommend TX TextControl (http://www.textcontrol.com/), it's not
cheap but will do what you want - we used it in two projects so far,
and it has worked perfectly as a Word replacement. It can even be used
as a report generator, to some extent.

This is pretty much the industry-standard: http://freetextbox.com

Freetextbox is for ASP.NET/Webforms, however... the original poster was
looking for a WinForms solution.

Thanks Philipp.

And yes, I was looking for a WinForms solution.

Man, that is expensive! Maybe I should right one and sell it myself.
hehehe
