I have two RichTextBoxes in my vb.net application (rtf1 & rtf2). rtf1 is loaded with the external data. Mostly It contains para split into different sections. The paragraph is a dynamic data, hence the no. of words keep on changing. Now my question is that, I want to select a para from the cluster, copy it and paste it into rtf2.
Manually I did as, Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
[Code]....
Here only i could find the starting position and length. without knowing the ending postion, i couldnot specify the number of characters. how to select "para content goes here is a multiline" only from the [para content goes here is a multiline]?
Actually the contents of Rtf1 is in the .txt format. But I knew only
My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText("xyx.txt")
so, if i can select the para in the .txt file before reading it into rtf1, it will be more useful.
I have a form with a richtextbox and a scrollbar. I want to be able to keep appending text to the textbox without loosing my selection. I can save the selectionstart and selectionlength before I append the text and set it back and it works. The problem is when it comes to reverse selecting. The best I could do is set back the selectionstart at the right position but I have to move the mouse so it selects text again. I'm using the following functions before and after I append the text:
Private Sub StopRepaint()
Dim pt As Point
' Stop redrawing:
SendMessage(txtchat.Handle, WM_SETREDRAW, 0, pt)
[code].....
My main goal is to be able to select and copy text even when new text is being appended to the richtextbox. Anyone knows how to correctly select text in reverse OR easily fix my problem about text being deselected?
On a button click i want to first select "vb dotnet forums" and on next click immediately select "are the best" (in a richtextbox control) .
View 6 Repliesi have a simple notepad application where i want a feature of selecting text which is underlined. Usually what happens is when i click a button the app reads a text file and underlines random text in the richtextbox. What i want is on the click of another button to select the text which is underlined. I thought of creating char range, regex all but not getting anywhere. I also dunno how to build a regex.
What i know is since all RTF texts are different we can choose the rtf text instead of simple text to select the underlined text. The rtf of underlined text in my application is this uli0 so manyulnonei where ul and ulnone mark the text as underlined. Now i want to select all such texts which are surrounded by uli0 and ulnonei . I thought of the following method :
1) Create another richtextbox2
2) Paste the text of richtextbox1 as rtf in richtextbox2. I mean show the text in coded rtf (like above) instead of normal rtf.
3) Use simple find to select all the text which is surrounded by ul and ulnone tags
4) process the text.
But this step is very tedious. If anyone could help me in making a simple procedure or build a regex which could process the text surrounded by those tags,
I wanted to select the entire line/row in the RichTextBox, where currently the cursor is. How should I do it ?The code should be paste in command button 'cmdSelect'
View 1 RepliesI'm using VB (visual studio) 2008. I'm trying to search a microsoft word file and select/copy text from it What i want to do
a. Search for a string/word in a text document(i.e "question)
b. When its found copy of text from that point to a point further down the document defined by a certain string ("a.")
c. after this is done it will continue to look for the next time the same string occurs (i.e. "question"") and continue as above?

View 1 RepliesI have an application written in VB.net for batch print jobs. As part of the application, the user selects two printer trays to use to print the batch to (one plain paper the other coloured for coversheets and batch seperators) I had this working until we upgraded our systems from Windows XP with Office 2000 to Windows 7 and Office 2010. Now the selected trays are not being recognised and an error is thrown.
I've looked at similar posts on here and other forums but they seam to concentrate on using some word default trays (wdPrinterDefaultBin etc) however I need to be able to let the user pick whatever tray they wish to use. I don't want to have to go through every printer in the building and map the trays to the word values either as I don't want to rewrite the app everytime we've a new printer.
Here is the code:
sub PopulatePrinterTray (byref Printer as String)
'gets printer trays for selected printer and then populates some comboboxes
Dim pkSource As Printing.PaperSource
Dim printDoc As New Printing.PrintDocument

View 2 RepliesI'm developing a command line application in Visual Basic .Net 2005 for converting RTF files into TXT. The application works perfect except for one thing. The files saved with MS Word containing some textbox make trouble. I'll explain it better with an example
1 - I open MS Word, I create a new document.
2 - I insert a texbox and i write some words inside.
3 - I save the file as RTF.
4 - I use my command line application for converting the RTF into TXT. The text inside the textbox doesn't appear anywhere.
The thing is that if I open the RTF file with wordpad it shows the text. It's not in a text box, but it shows it.The problem is that this application will read files uploaded by users automatically so I can't just leave it like this, I have to take into account that there is the possibility that some user will save an RTF file with a textbox inside so I need it to be able to get the contents of the textbox the same way wordpad does.
Here is the code
Try
Dim args(2) As String
args = System.Environment.GetCommandLineArgs
Dim c As New System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox

Dim str2 As String = RichTextBox3.Text
RichTextBox3.Text = str2.Replace("2"c, "B"c)
But it's not working as it will just skip replace of % for whole text and I want just just exclude particular word from list from being replaced...
