asp_components thread: RichTextBox ActiveX Control, Need Help!

Can somebody help??
Has anybody ever used a RichTextBox ActiveX control successfully in their
ASP
pages??
I want the client to basically have the ability to enter text and format
the
block of text (bold, italic, etc.) using a RichTextBox control. When the
user has
entered some text and formatted it, the user can store the text in a
database.
I have embedded the RichTextBox control on the asp page, however I can't
do
simple formatting like making some selected text bold. I have got a button
on the
page which when clicked on is supposed to invoke code to make the selected
text
bold.
However I just keep getting the following error message:
Object required: ''
I have also tried setting text in the RichTextBox by pressing a button,
which is
supposed to set the text displayed to some predefined text, when the
button is
pressed. However I get the same error message.
Does anyone know why I keep getting the error message?? What am I doing
wrong?
Thankyou in advance

How can you use DHTML to do bold, italic and bullets? I have done a 1/2
hour web trawl and have yet to find anything. Could you point me to a site
that does this, or a tutorial on it?
