I've been hitting mu head to the wall on this one and I see some few other with the same question but not a clear answer

I have DNN(4.05.02) and I see the FCK editor popping up on the Manage profile basic page so it is working

I need to have an aspx page with the control, the usual answer is place this

<%@ Register Src="~/controls/texteditor.ascx" TagName="texteditor" TagPrefix="Dnn" %>

UserControl uc = (UserControl)this.LoadControl("~/controls/texteditor.ascx");
         DotNetNuke.UI.UserControls.TextEditor this_texty = (DotNetNuke.UI.UserControls.TextEditor)uc;

but that gives a nasty

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

then sombidy said try

   DotNetNuke.UI.WebControls.DNNRichTextEditControl this_texty = new DotNetNuke.UI.WebControls.DNNRichTextEditControl();

with the samer results ;-(((  What is the way to get this to work???

    Thanks
