Hi Alan, and thanks for the response.

Yes, I've also discovered exactly what you're saying.  I have the codes that I
need, but I don't know how to insert (or remove) them.  As you've pointed out,
we seem to only be able to access the text, and nothing more.  I think if
someone can give us a clue as to how one inserts and manipulates the codes,
then it would help a lot.  Is there anyone out there...?  :-)

For now, what I've done is to use the EM_GETCHARFORMAT and EM_SETCHARFORMAT
messages along with the CHARFORMAT structure.  It's a bit messy right now, and
only serves to imitate the actual sub- and super-scripting behavior.  I don't
like to have to do it this way, but it's all I have right now.

I don't know if this "methodology" will help you out, but it might serve until
we find out how to actually insert the codes.  Or, it could end up being too
much trouble.  :-)

Anyway, I'll be sure to say something to you if I find out anything more.

Thanks,

Travis
