Hello Sebastien,

You could have a look at:

to see if it gives you any help. One "trick" I have used in the past is
to create a Word document with the structure I want, then save it as
RTF and examine the codes produced. This is a bit like using "Record
Macro". It (probably) doesn't give you exactly what you want, but can
provide an idea of the codes to use for the "real" thing.

Cheers,
Randy

Well, but note that the RichTextBox control supports only a small subset of
available RTF commands and IIRC does not support tables.
