:-( I'm sure you'll let us know if you ever figure it out!

Grrr.

Unfortunately I cannot find any way around this. If we stop using the
rich text control, we limit the amount of data we can handle as the
non-rich text variant will simply truncate oversized data on win32.
There is no way in wxWidgets to remove the URL formatting that I can
find, nor is there any way offered by the rich text controls own API
:-(. It is somewhat odd that we can get the text with the other
formatting (font etc) though - perhaps an overisght on Microsoft's
behalf?
The only other option I can see is to rewrite the grid text editor to
use the styled text control, but that will be some work. I'll add a
TODO for it though.
Cheers, Dave
