Richedit wrap

Perfect. I have to see if that value can be detected with EM_POSFROMCHAR 

That message has some crazy parameters:

wParam
   Rich Edit 1.0 and 3.0: A pointer to a POINTL structure that receives the client area coordinates of the character.
   The coordinates are in screen units and are relative to the upper-left corner of the control's client area.

   Edit controls and Rich Edit 2.0: The zero-based index of the character.

lParam
   Rich Edit 1.0 and 3.0: The zero-based index of the character.

   Edit controls and Rich Edit 2.0: This parameter is not used.

So I take it you're going to check which version of RichEdit you're talking to, right? What a pain in the butt.

Indeed, it's very messy. Currently, I'm in the process of changing my editor from Ansi/Utf-8 to the Utf-16 version of the RichEdit control. The version I am using now is RichEdit60W.

Almost 8 years ago dpradov posted Allow the use of newer versions of RichEdit:

OFFICE 2007  (12) :  v6.0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\RICHED20.DLL
RichEdit Version 6.0
Product/file version: 12.0.6606.1000
Product name: 2007 Microsoft Office system
(+ msptls.dll)
ClassName: 'RichEdit60W'

I don't have Office 2007 installed, and I load from C:\Windows\System32\msftedit.dll

So I am a bit confused why it works on my ten year old Win7-64 machine.

Can I ask you a favour? Extract the attached files to a folder, then drag the rtf over the exe and hit F9. Tell me what you see as version info in the last line. Thanks

No Word 2007 here; I went back to Word 2000 (actually prefer it over the newer versions).

Computer is totally screwed up here; time for a completely new rig, unfortunately.

I agree - Word 2003 here.

Thanks for the screenshot, so it works with older versions of C:\Windows\System32\msftedit.dll
My Win7 version is 21 ‎November ‎2010, ‏‎04:24:01, 592,348 bytes.

You can load several "W" versions with msftedit.dll
50W has the space before problem, 20W and 60W don't (WordPad uses 50W)
50W is almost a factor 2 faster, but I hate the way it handles space before the paragraphs.

So in the end I voted for the most advanced msftedit version, which is 60W

Google phrase searches for "RichEdit70W" and "RichEdit80W" return few results. They exist but nobody uses them.

The topic pops up frequently here, see e.g. RICHEDIT diferences between RICHEDIT50W and RichEdit20A

Hi all!

Take some hours 

modify1 parse RichEdit content extracted (EM_STREAMOUT) to a buffer p1, and write to a buffer p2 that is sended (WM_SETTEXT) to same RichEdit, also need the original rtf size (the stream out, no text size) in RichEdit :

Sorry, this became "not so Campus subject"

Thanks, HSE.

Currently, I'm in the process of changing my editor from Ansi/Utf-8 to the Utf-16 version of the RichEdit control. The version I am using now is RichEdit60W.

New version released, download here (more).
