How do you add a rich text box in Visual Basic?

[GoingUp]

Is it the same as a normal text box? Can I drag it onto the GUI Form form somewhere?

What version of VB? .NET has it right on the toolbar. In 6, you will need to add it. I don't remember how, but once it appears on the toolbar, you just drag it on the form.
