1. AFAIK no. It has its own window (Unless you use winAPI but that AFAIK supported by w2K and later)
2. Might be. You could try watermarking a word doc and saving as RTF to get RTF codes.
3. Set RightMargin to 0. thisform.OleRTF.RightMargin = 0
4. Above me currently :) With and editbox below code might provide a nonsmart way :

LPARAMETERS nButton, nShift, nXCoord, nYCoord
if abs(val(this.tag)-nYCoord)>Fontmetric(1) ;
	or abs( val(substr(this.tag,at(',',this.tag)+1))-nXCoord)> Fontmetric(6)
	mouse dblclick at nYCoord, nXCoord window (wontop())pixels
	this.tag = trans(nYCoord)+','+trans(nXCoord)
endif
