If I attempt to create the RichTextBox from xaml instead of code the 
error is: "SystemError: AG_E_UNKNOWN_ERROR [Line: 5 Position: 25]"

The xaml is:

<Canvas x:Class="System.Windows.Controls.Canvas"
     xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007"
     xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">

<RichTextBox x:Name="text" />

</Canvas>

All the best,

Michael
