Creates a NSTextViewMBS object for the given control.
Example 
// load rtfd file into textarea
dim file as FolderItem = SpecialFolder.Desktop.Child("test.rtfd")
dim n as NSAttributedStringMBS = NSAttributedStringMBS.attributedStringWithPath(file)
dim t as NSTextViewMBS = TextArea1.NSTextViewMBS
t.textStorage.setAttributedString(n)
