CF8 Flash form and Rich text Editor Question

I like the look of flash forms. I would also like to use the CF8 <cftextarea richtext="true"> tag for a text editor. When I have the cfform set to format="flash" the textarea box displays, but not with any toolbars. Without format="flash" the cfform displays everything perfect. Is there a way to use this code and make the whole text editor show in flash with the toolbars and everything?

<cfform name="myform" height="200" width="400" format="Flash">
<cflayout type="tab">
<cflayoutarea title="Entry Page">
<cftextarea name="textentry" cols="80" rows="15" richtext="true"></cftextarea>
</cflayoutarea>
<cflayoutarea title="Preview">
<cfdiv bind="{textentry}">
</cflayoutarea>
</cflayout>
<cfinput type="submit" value="Save">
</cfform>

CF8 rich text editor is based on FCKEditor(fckeditor.net) and it can not work on a Flash forms.

You can check this post for an alternative.
