Editing code is NOT a special need these days Norman. HTML is code. XML is code. Plain text is code... we need code editors for our daily lives these days... This isn't the 1980s anymore... RB's editfield handle huge amounts of text, and it's awkward to style. And styling huge amounts of text is impossible. I'm not impressed to be honest, that RB create a solution, that most of us need for non-competitive purposes (we aren't going to make another RB with the code editor editfield)... and then don't give it to us. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
