Why? Want to prevent the RTF data and graphics to be used by the user? This is naive, anyway.

I just show them to the user.
Don't want user to select the RTF data.

You don't want? In this case, I would be a bit more concerned with what users want.

There is nothing wrong if the user selects it. It's too bad that it is not allowed to select and copy absolutely everything. The lack of such feature is one of the rare drawbacks of desktop applications compared to Web applications where it's always possible.
