hi Tamar

Thanks for the answer. I thought that maybe I could have an object which I create for each glossary word and I add it to the richtextbox. However I am having some trouble adding such an object. I tried adding pictures and it works but when i try to add another object it's giving me a 'invalid class string error' i'm using this code:

PUBLIC lolink

loLink = CREATEOBJECT('_hyperlinklabel')
lolink.caption = 'test'
lolink.ctarget = 'www.levelextreme.com'

thisform.olecontrol1.OLEObjects.Add(,,lolink)

For those who do not know, the _hyperlinklabel class is in _hyperlink.vcx under c:\program files\microsoft visual foxpro 8\ffc\

This is the code I am using to add a picture:

lcPicFile = GETPICT()

lopic = LOADPICTURE(lcPicFile)
lcNewFile = 'c:\' + JUSTSTEM(lcPicFile) + '.bmp'
SAVEPICTURE(lopic,lcNewFile)
thisform.olecontrol1.OLEObjects.Add(,,lcNewFile)

Any ideas ?
thanks.
