Text Editor with Formatting?

[Das Goravani]

Oh my, I never noticed there were menu choices on the URL or Control Name property… yes, the editor with formatting controls appeared. Do you know off hand how you retrieve the HTML created by typing and formatting? I can’t see it as a property.. 

I will try the manual.
