I am trying to display a string of text in a multiline edit
control within a dialog box.  The string contains standard
C formatting characters such as '\t' and '\n'.

The formatting works OK in MessageBoxs but will not
display in the edit control.  All that is displayed is
one long line with a few square bars where the formatting
characters are.

Any tips would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
