Text Editor - Save / Open RTF Files
Aug 4, 2011
So I have made a text editor using rich text boxes and it is made to save/open rtf files. I have 3 issues I was hoping to get answers for...
1. Can I (and if so how) make it able to open/save text files and rtf files (so the user can choose which way to save it)?
2. I added the ability to color the words, but instead of coloring just the highlighted parts - it colors everything in the file. How do I change that so it only colors selected text?
3. I also added the dialog for Font changes, but it does not seem to work correctly. I want it to change font/size/etc of whatever is selected. Right now when I highlight stuff and then go into Font it allows the dialog box but does not actually change the font size/type/etc in the file it has open.
Here is the code for the above 4 mentioned areas...
Save...
Try
Dim dlg As SaveFileDialog = New SaveFileDialog
dlg.Title = "Save"
dlg.Filter = "Rich Text Files (*.rtf)|*.rtf"
[Code] .....

I had to develope a program that shows a list of names and age in text editor. I am able to open the file in text editor but not getting the names and ages when typing it in the text box and clicking my "write button" or the file menu write. Everything else seems to be working fine with the exception of getting my message box twice from the event load. I don't know if the below is enough for you to assist me but this is what I should see in the text editor:

The problem is that if I save a file I get "myfile.GDL" if I overwrite that I get a new file "myfile.GDL.GDL" ect.the other problem being that the filtering in the windows save/open dialog wont show .GDL files unless I select "all files".

I have to produce a basic text editor with buttons along the top and a richtext box below. I am currently struggling with 'Save if changes are made' objective. At the minute clicking my exit button rather than close/X (something i have to disable but havent yet) brings up the do you want to save message box regardless of any changes and also, clicking the yes button does nothing.
CODE:
I recieve no errors and apologise if i have forgotten to include something useful

I'm fairly new to VB.NET, and I'm working on a text editor with a tabbed interface. I deal with large text files. Should I have each tab / text document open up in a new thread or a process? I basically want the entire application to always run fast as the text editor is just one part of it. If I have several large text files open I don't want the rest of the application slowing down a bit.

So essentially, I have this text editor. How can I make it so when I drop a text file over it, it opens it in textbox2? Or when I doubleclick on the file, it automatically opens it in my program (in textbox2).

I have AutoDragDrop enabled in my textbox. It drags the .jpg file into my program successfully. When I save it only saves the text not the .jpg file. I do realize that when I save the file I need to have the .jpg saved also and I am not sure how to accomplish this. I have checked multiple forums and googled of course. No luck as of yet.

I believe I need the code for Load Event. I have tried many ideas. I have searched the threads here and also google of course. No luck as of yet. Better description: I have a file named hello.txt. The contents of this text file are "hello". I use my program as the default for .txt files. I dbl click hello.txt. My program loads and the contents are blank and it should have "hello" in it.

I am trying to save multiple text files using a save dialog.
I can save one textbox
SaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
Dim File As System.IO.File
Dim Write As System.IO.StreamWriter
Write = File.CreateText(SaveFileDialog1.FileName)
Write.WriteLine(TextBox1.Text)
Write.Close()
but I don't know how to save multiple textboxes and richtext boxes. Would I have to use a screenwriter for this?

I want it to do the following: When they click the import button, open multiple files (done) then save them as a settings. Then on form load, open those files so I do not have to re-import them!
I have tried this
CODE:
on form load and settings.txt included 2 file names and locations. It is only opening the 2nd file NOT the first. How can I make it open ALL files in that settings file? I also tied ReadLines

I current have an app that I am trying to create. I have 2 List boxes, a textbox, and a command button.What I am trying to do is take about 100 text files that all have certain text in them that I need to change at run time to whatever I put into the textbox. For instance Each Text file has my old company name and I want to be able enter my new name into the textbox and click the command button and the app will open each text file, find the text that I specify and replace it with my new name then save the file into a specified folder.What elements should I be studying to make this happen? So far this is what I've come up with:
OpenFileDialog - to open the file
StreamReader - to read the text files and find the text that I specified
**Not sure on the replace method**
StreamWriter - to write the text from the textbox to the new file
SaveFileDialog - to save the file to the specified location

I am making a word processor, in VB 2008 and one problem I'm having is creating a save, print and open features. I have done the dialog bit, so when I click my save, print or open buttons the open, print or save window opens, but it's just the next bit that's mind boggling; writing a code so the file will actually open, save or print!

i would like to know if it's possible to save text files into my app. that way there is no folder to contain those files. i'm thinking that i might need a separate form to hold such information, like creating a new textbox for each saved file and it's content, then loading the files from that form's textboxes.
