Dear Sergey,

The code you gave me, doesn't do what I want.

I've got the following code:

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)

{

  TEdit* edt = new TEdit((TComponent*)NULL);

  edt->OnClick = OnControlClick;

  rve->InsertControl("", edt, rvvaBaseline);

  if(rve->CurItemStyle == rvsComponent)

  rve->SetCurrentItemExtraIntProperty(rvepResizable, 1, True);

}

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I click the button, a TEdit shows on the TRichViewEdit. The TEdit isn't

selected. The TEdit should be selected after pressing the button.

Could you give me a hint?

Thanks.
