Does anyone know how I can create a sort of "Table Designer Dialog" and then
"Draw the Table" as in similar to the sort of thing you might find in Word. I
am trying to modify Microsoft's HTML Editor to include an Insert Table Dialog
and perhaps change the colour of a cell etc etc. Is there a function that can
be called from Windows to do this, in the same way as DIALOG HELPER calls the
Windows Colour Palette to change a font colour for example. Can't seem to
find anyone who knows how to do this

Cheers John (UK)

Are you writing a windows app or a web page editor?
The editor in HotMail does tables with colour picker for example, is this
the sort of thing?

Hi Joe

I am just trying to enhance the Microsoft HTML Editor, the one used as an
example
which can be found at

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/editing/tutorials/html_editor.asp

So I guess its not really a web page editor, as such. It would be nice if I
could add
a draggable Insert Table/Rows/Columns feature and change a cells
Foregrond/Background colour as required. Looking at the code and how it uses
the Dialog Helper Object to pull the colour palette in, I just wondered if
there was a similar object already in Windows that I could use etc etc etc
etc -

Thanks John (UK)
