Rick,
My original idea had been the Microsoft Forms 2.0 Textbox. Thinking that, as an ActiveX control, it would have a window handle. While it does, it, unfortunately, does not expose it as a property. I imagine if you wanted to try to locate the window using the API you could, but I'm not sure that it would be any better than the RichText control.
