    Question Need Controls like MS Office ones

    Hello
    I need some components for my program (being written in VB.net 2003) similar to the ones that Microsoft has used in Office 2003 or the ones that this Forum uses (e.g. in the page I'm writing in right now.)...Can I download it from internet? Can anybody help me? Or is at possible...?

    I'm confused. Are you creating an ASP project or an Application? Office 2003 is a collection of Applications but this forum is a web application. Quite different.

    Are you talking about Bold, Italic, Underline, Alignment etc?

    You sound like you might be reffering to the richtextbox. Those are a part of the .Net framework. If you check the side toolbar in your IDE, it is listed by default. If it isn't for whatever reason, follow these directions:

    Right click your toolbar on the left and select Add/Remove Items...

    Scroll down until you find RichTextBox and Check it. Then hit ok.

    There are third-party controls available all over the place if the standard .NET controls do not satisfy your needs, or you can use the mechanisms Microsoft has provided in the .NET Framework to create your own. If you were more specific as to what you wanted we might be able to be more specific in our answers. You can see my signature for some links to free controls that will jazz up an app.
