The 'rtf' property

Implemented under Windows only

Character vector

Valid for: RichEdit

Internally, Windows RichEdit controls hold information about the contents and appearance of text in Rich Text Format (RTF). The rtf property allows you to retrieve or change the entire contents of the control as RTF directly, including the text contents, font face, size, style and color.

If you want just the raw text without any formatting information, use the text property instead. If you want to retrieve or change just the currently-selected text in RTF format, use the selrtf property.
