    success = h2t.UnlockComponent("30-day trial");
    if (success != true) {
        strOut.append(h2t.lastErrorText());
        strOut.append("\r\n");
        SetDlgItemText(IDC_EDIT1,strOut.getUnicode());

    //  Set the HTML:
    const char * html;
    html = "<html><body><p>This is a test.</p><blockquote>Here is text within a blockquote</blockquote></body></html>";

    const char * plainText;

    plainText = h2t.toText(html);
