I'd say, start with core features like string manipulation (for syntax highlighting, intellisense etc) in a richtextbox, make this as a seperate user control. Start organising your code into OO classes / functions. Then start adding induvisual toolbars / menus for manipulation Now start adding the induvidual buttons which you will have such as Bold, Search etc. Disenable them all Start wiring events to the buttons and as you do so, re-enable them so you know how far you have got.
