Remarks

The Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls.RichTextBox is different from a System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox. The Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Controls.RichTextBox has additional members that enable it to be added to a Word document and that give it additional methods and properties.

Do not use the constructor to create a new RichTextBox. Use the AddRichTextBox method to add a new RichTextBox to a document.
