Can you guys recommend a Windows style text editor control for a .net winforms application? Under $100 preferably.
A:
Most widely used for text editor controls for web development.
Open source so your price restriction is covered. I am assuming you want to include a control similar to this one. :)
For Winforms take a look at this discussion over at Codeproject

I may be misinformed, but FCKeditor is for web apps only. Clint is asking about Windows Forms.

A:
I recommend the TextBox. It's a fully supported control from the author of the .NET framework itself - Microsoft. The price may not be too cheap, but it depends on what version of Visual Studio you are using. At the lower end you can even get it for a whooping $0.00 if you use Visual Studio Express edition! (Note: price can change without warning, get yours while you still can!)

A:
Depending on what type of editing you want to do, you might try the RichTextBox control which supports different fonts, colours, etc.
The MSDN documentation for this control is located here.
