It's purpose is as follows:It basically is a "check list" for installed program's, and files. I image machines on a daily basis, and me making this application will save me hours, and hours of time.The basics:My program basically has 2 forms. 1st form, will be tabbed with "clients" or, different model of PC's. Each tab will have it's own checklist. I know how to pull external files already, though, that's not my issue.Basically, when I click "check list" button, it searches for an "adobe", and "Labtech" Directory. If it exists, it will throw the result into form2.richtextbox as Adobe is installed, or Adobe is not installed. Also, Checks if the second program directory is there, and then imports the info into form2.richtextbox on a seperate line. My question is, how do I change the color of the text per line?I.e. make Adobe is installed turn GREEN, and Adobe is not installed turn RED ect.
Form2.Show()
Form2.Show()
If Directory.Exists("C:\Program Files\ATI") Then

How do you make the word you typed in the Rich Text Box change only the words color? Example:
Example Text
* Hello World
Bye World *
Some more Example text I tried this:
If RichTextBox1.Text = "Hello World" Then
RichTextBox1.ForeColor = Color.Blue
End If
But it changed the WHOLE textbox forecolor to blue. I don't want that, just for the word.

View 4 RepliesI'm basically trying to make a simple, easy-to-use, paint program. I seem to be having problems with using multiple colors in the PictureBox1_Paint option. It draws the graphics but when you change the brush color and click in the picturebox it changes the colors of the previous graphics to the color you are currently trying to use. I need it to allow multiple colors.
Here's the code that I'm currently using..
Imports System.Drawing.Drawing2D
Public Class DynosPaint
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Private IsFormBeingDragged As Boolean = False

A TextBox has the Following Words; " ABC : 12" , "EGF : 15" and "JUT : 02".I want to have "ABC : 12" to have Red color Font, "EGF : 15" - Blue Font and "JUT : 02" to have Green Font.Is it possible to do this? Changing the "Fore Color" in the "Property" of the TextBox changes the color of all the Texts to one color.
The other problem I am having is (how) to get these sorted according to the Number shown with the ABC, EGF etc,. They should be arranged either in ascending order or descending order.Each one is displayed as a String ("ABC : 12" is a String but "ABC" is a String and "12" is a Double converted to String).

I know this sounds really bad but I can't seem to figure this out. I am creating a template to use in a form. I have a few buttons that when I click on them will auto type out text into a rich text box. I figured it out for just typing in the text into the richtextbox. richtextbox1.text = "my text goes here" But if I hit the button more than once it doesn't keep adding the text to the rich text box. How can you program a button to enter a text as many times as you click the button?

View 2 Repliesi want to change to font size in richtextbox using a combo box its easy to change the font size if we have one font in our selection text using this code.

txtSubject1Info.SelectionStart = txtSubject1Info.Find("Hey!")
I am finding specific words in the RichTextBox (in this case, "Hey!") and selecting them by getting their initial position through the "Find" command. Unfortunately, this does not work when I have multiple instances of "Hey!" in the RichTextBox. Here's an example:
Text in RichTextBox:
Hey! This is cool!
The Find command would return a value of 0 in this case. However, let's take a look at another scenario:
Text in RichTextBox:
In this case, the Find command would return a value of 0 again, but I want it to get the initial position of the second "Hey!" statement. I'm wondering how I can do this.
