I'm a new bee to MFC.

I'm trying to do a simple MFC dialog base project. This project involves multiple text boxes. So my question is "Is it possible to have multiple rich edit control in a single dialog. So if possible how can i create a pointer to it?
Similar to this:

C++

CEdit* e;
e=(CEdit*)GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1);

I cant think of any reason why you cant have more than one rich edit control.
The code you posted looks fine.
What error are you getting, where do you hit a problem?

Yes, you will have to do something like :

C++

CRichEditCtrl* edit1 = dynamic_cast<CRichEditCtrl*>( GetDlgItem(IDC_RICHEDIT21 ));
