Going in more depth currently over on MSDN on how to parse a color line to the richtextbox.

Now currently i can only think about on each arrival of a new message loop the RTB length and match a a string.
Is there any way when we append to the RTB with the new string we can parse that new strings color also?
I'm a PHP/MySQL/HTML guy, but in the course of my work, I sometimes have to delve into Gatesland.I am working in VS2005 developing reports, and occasionally I have to write some custom code. This code is in (I believe) VB.NET. I avoid this as much as possible. It is my belief that if you have to use custom code in a report, you're doing something wrong with the DB, or with your query.Now, my boss (for reasons unknown) is storing data in the database as HTML. This data is historical, having a month and a dollar amount, and comes in a form like this:[code]I know this breaks even 1NF. I did not design the database. I simply must suffer under it's schema. See, the developer did this so that he could just read in a field, and dump it straight out to an echo/print statement when forming up the HTML. Unfortunately for me (the report developer), HTML shows up as verbose text if I dump it out as a field in a text field in a VS2005. So, I need to strip out he HTML tags, and replace them with appropriate values.
I am first trying to strip out the <th> data, and print it out with appropriate line feeds and carriage returns. This is the code I am trying to use:[code]Now, far from doing what I intend it to do, it simply returns the jubilent result "#Error". Wonderful. I'm sure the client will be happy.There must be some simple syntax errors or something going on there, but I am nowhere near an expert with VB.NET. I've used VBA extensively, but last time I used it was about 3 years ago. I'm hoping I can cash in some of that positive rep I've got, and get some much needed help in the dark wilderness of Microsoftia

View 11 RepliesTrying to change the color of more than one of the same text within a RichTextBox. [Code] The above code searches for, and changes the color of all "Boat"s found in the RichTextBox.

Also, the text you wish to change the color of in the RichTextBox MUST be Exactly the same as: "Search1", aka "Boat", capital letters and all.

I am opening an exe that launches in a hidden cmd window, and redirecting the text to a RichTextBox on a form. The problem is that the status messages in the cmd window are in color, but the redirected text in the RichTextBox has no color information and show as black on white. However, all the status messages in the cmd window have headers that could be parsed in some way so I can add color to them for my RichTextbox. For example, a message in the cmd window might read: [Warning] No settings file was found, using default values instead. This message is in Yellow in the cmd window.

I'm trying to find a way to change the color of one word when appending text to a Rich text box. So if I append the sentence "This is a sentence with a specific word in one color" The entire thing will be in black except for the word "specific" it will be in red or any color I choose. The same thing will happen if the next line appended is "Please be specific in your request". All back except for the word "specific". I don't want the text added then someone has to click a button to change the color. It should happen as it's appended.

But now my problem is i want the RichTextBox to be enabled but it should not be possible to Copy Text from it.
