Big thanks for your input.
I take on board what you say .
So my next question is,
does anyone know where i can find a Control, that can be used inside a
Window
To display HTML or similar.
At a push text only will do.
I am trying to achieve a read only Display with embedded text links
Much the same as the display achieved in the
Win32 Programmers Reference itself.
