On of the projects i'm working on requires the application to load RTF files perform a find and replace on then and then display them wysiwyg, which i have easily done. the problem is that the people recreating the rtf files are doing things that the default RTF box does on support such as tables with multiple lines on row, and tables with borders that are different per cell.

and they aren't happy, now short of integrating word into the app i'm struggling to get this formatting to show correctly. and iintergrating word is not an option cause the company doesn't want to buy office licences just so staff can use this app

any ideas?

I would buy a third party library for something like this. Here is an example:

Word Processing Component - DOCX DOC RTF PDF WordML ODT EPUB XPS HTML TXT

If buying is not an option at all you should look around on sourceforge.net for an open source version.
