I have a problem when I select a portion of a string from a RichTextBox. For instance, if I have the following string: (23*6)+5 and I want to select (23*6) the "+" is also selected. I have search for a means to correct this problem, but I have not been able to find a solution.

I've got a DataGridView that has a DataTable as it's Datasource. Whenever I sort a column and then edit a cell, after editing the column, the column autosorts so the recently edited cell is no longer in the viewable area. Is there any way to prevent this auto sort from happening and only sort when I click on the columns?

But how can I get just a portion of the selected string in the combobox to a string so I can do a search on it.

View 2 RepliesI'm using a richtextbox and I format the text (color) during keypress.. (like visual basic language: text in black, "dim" in blue, "comments" in green...) I use selection properies to do this, ok, work fine, but I see the selection and unselection.. Ok, is very fast, but it's annoying.. there is a way to format the text and hide the selection?
View 2 RepliesWhen setting the selection of a RichTextBox, the selected text is highlighted even though I set the HideSelection property to True. Once the RTB loses focus then the selected text is no longer highlighted. Programatically setting the focus to another control doesn't hide the selection, only physically clicking another control will hide it. So is there a way I can make the RTB not show the selection right from the start?
View 2 RepliesI've made a class that's supposed to manipulate strings in a textbox to turn them into integers and let the cursor return to the place it was before a character was removed. It seems to work fine as far I've been able to figure out, but when I use it from the TextChanged event things go wrong. The problem is that when the class is finished and the corrected string is written back into the textbox, the TextChanged event is fired again. That on itself is not the worst problem as it runs too quick to notice, but the disadvantage is that a variable needed is destroyed with the class after it's finished the first time, resulting in the cursor ending up in the wrong place at the left of the textbox after it's run for the second time.I've been thinking of 3 solutions, but none of them I've been able to find out how to put it in code or even if they are possible:

How do you code selection of text within a RichTextBox. I tried the following code and nothing happens.I would think this should select all text within the RichTextBox.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectAll()
End Sub
I would think this would select text from a start point to an end point.
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
ss = Convert.ToInt16(TextBox1.Text)
se = Convert.ToInt16(TextBox1.Text)
Me.RichTextBox1.Select(ss, se)
End Sub
I have a RichTextBox. I process all the formatting and everything works fine. There is an exception. When I have selected text that have two states of formatting in it, the SelectionFont member is set to Nothing. I notice that WordPad recognizes this condition
and kindof greys out the affected format.
Let's take this example:
This text is in Bold.
The rest of the comments here and not in bold.
When I select these two lines, the SelectionFont gets set to Nothing. WordPad sets the Bold button grey, but still clickable. If I click the Bold button in this state, the entire selection is set to bold. How do I achieve this same functionality?
i want user when clicks a button to show a selection around a richtextbox and not inside it selecting the text... what i have right now is this: richtextbox1.focus() that will indeed focus the richtextbox but the problem is, it only selects its text content.
What i want is something similar to a Yellow or Blue Square showing around the richtextbox i want to "select", so the user will properly notice the richtextbox more easelly.
i tried messing with the vb express rectangle stuff but i cant get it to draw over all objects, its actually always displaying below all objects in the forum
EDIT: ive also tried using a tiff picturebox with a drawed empty rectangle on it, but the dreadish thing when put over other objects like textboxes, it simply just displays the color of the form emitting any other objects in between, setting the background color to transparent under web colors had the same problem...
How do I apply 2 font styles to the text selected in a richtextbox? Used this method to change fontstyle:
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font(RichTextBox1.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Bold)
But with this method I can only apply 1 font-style (for example bold OR italic OR underlined, etc.) right? But I want to apply for example 2 front-styles, or just add the font style ( so I can add several front-styles to the selected text, for example the text is bold, and then ALSO make it underlined (with this method I can only change the font-style, only one font-style)), how do I do this?
Just do so:
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font(RichTextBox1.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Bold + FontStyle.Italic)
How do you reset a RichTextBox? I wrote some code that changes the
RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.White and
RichTextBox1.SelectionBackColor = Color.Red.
I'd like to change all the text in the RichTextBox back to Black and no back color.
This seems like is should be simple but for the life of me I can't seem to get it. I am using VB.net.I am importing a text file into Excel. Then I want to select everything and sort it based on a cell (A) in this case. So here is what I have so far.

I am now developing a WinForms app with a custom WPF RichTextBox. My whole reason for doing this is to use the out-of-the-box spellchecker. I need my RichTextBox to expand and collapse vertically as the text is changed. The elementhost will also have to resize to allow the whole RTB to display on-screen.
