Can I change the color of text in CEditView?

[workaholic]

It is said that color of the text in CEditView can't be changed,is that
true? if I only want to write a simple editor to process document
without embeded ActiveX , should I turn to the more complex CRichEditView?

It can only be changed for the whole control. If you want some text in
a different colour you should use the rich edit control.

Thanks a lot!
Then how can I convert the whole texts in CRichEditCtrl to ordinary text
format, in order to be ready to be processed by subsequent programs
handling only ASCII texts?
Thanks again in advance!

If you use GetWindowText that will return just the plain text.
