Can RichTextBox Control Render HTML??

Hi, I'm trying to render HTML (straight html, nothing fancy) on a form. Can
I use the RichTextBox to do this? I haven't been successful (just get the
html source). Maybe there is another way? Thanks for any suggestions.

Brad,

Render is such a nice word that says for me nothing. For HTML are the
browsers, do you want more than you can by instance use the webbrowser which
is an Interop to that. I assume that you want something as this.

I hope I did the right gues

You may want to use the WebBrowser control for this purpose.
