Problem with MOSSRadEditor base class in RadEditor for MOSS 4.5.6

Problem with MOSSRadEditor base class in RadEditor for MOSS 4.5.6

I tried to add MOSSRadEditor in sample WebPart so I downloaded ASP.NET RadEditor for MOSS Lite Edition from below free Telerik Control link.
http://www.telerik.com/community/free-products.aspx
As per MOSSRadEditor help file I got 3 dlls for WSP and add to my WebPart project but I can’t find MOSSRadEditor Constructor as below
MOSSRadEditor objMOSSRadEditor = new MOSSRadEditor(); //not define MOSSRadEditor Constructor


Error:
The type 'Telerik.SharePoint.MOSSRadEditor' has no constructors defined

Resolution: I googled this problem and found the problem reason (WSP contains light DLLs). So I got one Telerik Support link (http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/sharepoint-2007/full-featured-editor/problem-with-mossradeditor-base-class-in-radeditor-for-moss-4-5-6.aspx ).This link contains one Reference code which use FULL DLLs so I download this DLLs and use it in my WebPart code.

Result: Its working fine.

Advantage: MOSSRadEditor Support all Browsers like IE, Firefox, Safari etc (I tried for this 3 browser).

Happy Coding !!!
