If you want to put something on top of the form, you can use a form within the form, put the object you want to place on top of the rtf control on that, and so forth. I once used a form object squeezed to look like a line to do a splitter control for activex, so that I wouldn't have to make the activex go away during the splitting operation.

>I try to use ZOrder(1) method to place RichText Control under few objects on a form w/o success. RichText Control is always on top of the form. Is it normal behavior for the RichText Control and is there any solutions to by pass this behavior?
