I need to get a user name out of an RTF document that was created and exported by Crystal Reports. How can I use VB6 to basically find text in an RTF document programmatically?

I've tried opening the document using the FileSystemObject and analyzing a "line" at a time, but thanks to RTF formatting this doesn't work so well. Do I need to convert the RTF to a different format in order to easily scan the document?

Thanks for any help,
gregoriw
