How to use Text Pad as an OLE control to select a column's d

[faiz]

Dear Experts,

We have developed a scientific application using VB6. The output, which contains several columns having numeric data delimited by <tab> char, is displayed in a multiline text box control. We wish to copy the data of a certain column (like, Block selected mode in TextPad) only. The text box control does not allow this feature at all.

Can anyone please tell me which control provides this sort of property. I also thought to use Excel as an OLE container. Can I use TextPad as an OLE conatiner or in any way. Please advise.

Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Regards,

Faiz
