Even if RichView is invisible, you can select items

(but it must be formatted)

var Stream: TMemoryStream;

Stream := TMemoryStream.Create;

with RichViewEdit do

begin

  // selecting items 3..6

  SetSelectionBound(3, GetOffsBeforeItem(3),

    6, GetOffsAfterItem(6));

  CopyRVFToStream(Stream, True);

  Stream.Position := 0;

  // positioning caret before the 8th item

  SetSelectionBound(8, GetOffsBeforeItem(8),

    8, GetOffsBeforeItem(8));

  InsertRVFFromStreamEd(Stream);

  Stream.Free;

end;

PS: items are numbered from 0
