How do I populate editor from database?

[Cadellin]

I'm working on a custom bug tracker for my site and as part of it I need to be able to edit items that have been previously entered into the system which I can do fine for all fields apart from the editor where I get stuck.

So my question is quite simple: How do I load a message into the vbeditor?

I have searched around quite extensively and thought about it but I can't think of an obvious solution so I thought I would ask in the hope someone can give me a point in the right direction.

Thanks
