Collection	Gets the collection containing the TextPane object supporting this property.
DTE	Gets the top-level extensibility object.
Height	Gets the height of the text pane in character units.
IncrementalSearch	Provides access to the incremental search (ISearch) capability of the text editor.
Selection	Gets an object representing the current selection on the TextPane object.
StartPoint	Gets the TextPoint object representing the first displayed character of the pane.
Width	Gets the width of the pane in character units.
Window	Gets the Window object that contains the pane.
