The following example inserts a MARQUEE element into the specified document at the insertion point, and then sets the scroll behavior and direction, the number of times to loop, and the height, width, and font and border formatting of the new element.

    Sub InsertMarquee(ByRef objDoc As FPHTMLDocument, ByRef strText As String, _
        strBehavior As String, strDirection As String, intLoop As Integer, _
        strHeight As String, strWidth As String, strFont As String, _
        blnBold As Boolean, blnItalic As Boolean, strBorderColor As String)

    Dim objRange As IHTMLTxtRange
    Dim objMarquee As FPHTMLMarqueeElement
    Dim intCount As Integer
    Dim strID As String

    intCount = objDoc.all.tags("marquee").Length
    strID = "marquee" & intCount + 1
    
    Set objRange = objDoc.Selection.createRange
    
    objRange.collapse
    objRange.pasteHTML "<marquee id=""" & strID & """></marquee>"

    Set objMarquee = objDoc.all.tags("marquee").Item(CVar(strID))

    With objMarquee
        .behavior = strBehavior
        .direction = strDirection
        .loop = intLoop
        .Height = strHeight
        .Width = strWidth
        With .Style
            .fontFamily = strFont
            If blnBold = True Then .fontWeight = "bold"
            If blnItalic = True Then .fontStyle = "italic"
            .Border = strBorderColor
        End With
        .innerText = strText
    End With

End Sub
