I am using winform RichTextBox and I wonder if we can find the corresponding rtf code (or at least whereabouts of it) when selecting text?
View 1 RepliesI think this capitalizes the first letter in the word "trUe" and makes the rest of the letters lowercase. Like: True
Dim strName
strName = "trUe"
strName = StrConv(strName, vbProperCase)
How would I make it so that if trUe is entered into the RichTextBox1 then it is automatically converted into: "True" ?

View 6 RepliesWell I basically know how to read a text file, replace text then write to one. how to append text after a specified string (ie, insert text at a specified line, removing the text after a string in a line and changing it without altering other lines, etc). Can someone please tell me how I would go about adding a string after a certain string in a text file? For example:

when i copy code from vb.net code window, and paste it in my richtextbox, the color synthax is as it displays in my vb.net code window.. this i want to keep when finding and replacing words. i have the following code to find and replace,
RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text.Replace("Private Sub", "<font color=blue>Private Sub</font>")
but the color syntax of the richtextbox code is lost, looks like a textbox's text.. how do i replace the words and keep the synthax coloring?
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.

I have a richtextbox control. It contains many lines of text (multiline is enabled). My goal is: When user clicks with right-click mouse, I'd like to display all the text of the line where the cursor is. I'm using this method to get the cursor's line:
Dim line As Integer = RichTextBox1.GetLineFromCharIndex(RichTextBox1.SelectionStart)
But how do I get the text of the line? Should I copy the whole text to a string array , and then just print the relevant line item?
on a timer that ticks every 1ms have it:
if RichTextBox1.Contains "begin" then
change "begin" to "begin".bolded
end if

I have a text box called "txtDescription" and listbox called "lstDetails" and a RichTextBox called "rttFullDes.
When the User inputs the search query into the description box(txtDescription) e.g "books" then it returns all the records that contains the word "books" and displays their Id in the listbox(lstDetails). When you click on the IDs it returns the full description in the Description box(rttFullDes)
This all works fine. But i want all the words to be hightlighted. i have got this code which i found.
Dim wordToFind As String = txtDescription.Text
Dim index As Integer = rttFullDes.Text.IndexOf(wordToFind)
While index <> -1

View 8 RepliesIs richtextbox can save a text within its control? What control in vb.net that could save the text being entered within its control paticularly, if any? I need somebody that could give me an idea on what control to use to save the text within the control. I'm not trying to save the text anywhere. I want to save it within the control. I don't have to save it with a filename and a path location. Just like this forum, which everytime you post and reply to a thread, you will have to enter your message in a certain workspace and after you submit, it will save within the control so everytime you open your thread you will see the messages. What control do I need to use in vb.net to do that? info especially the codes to save the text string within a certain control?
View 11 RepliesI'm trying to do two things. I have a Richtextbox which i'm continously adding text to from a standard text box. I want that new text to appear at the beginning of the existing text, not at the end of the existing text.I've got the following code but it's not working. The new text keeps going to the end of the existing text.
Dim newtext As String
newtext = TextBox1.Text
RichTextBox1.AppendText(newtext)

I have seen and used Text.split with a single delimiter such as " ",-","-".". However I cannot find a method which allows multiple delimiters. I need to be able to split a richTextBox's text into an array list.

View 1 RepliesSo, imagine I have a RichTextBox control and a few buttons to allow the user to change the font size, set/unset bold, italic etc, and perhaps change the colour. Not much more than that. Can I then - in code - loop through the contents of the RichTextBox and determine which words are in bold or red or whatever, and where paragraphs start and end?

My application appends incoming report data onto a RichTextbox control. As more text arrives from an external device, the thumb initially fills the trough and as times goes on, the thumb diminishes in size. This is expected behavior.A modal dialog box allows the user to cancel the file download but since it's modal, the user can't scroll down to see what the last text that was appended.Is there a property/event/method that will show the most recent/last text in the RichTextBox control, rather than the initial text as I have it displayed now? The user would be able to see the text drawn real time without having to use the thumb to accomplish
View 2 RepliesI have a form, that when opened, displays the image from the webcam onto it.
It's a test, to ensure the webcam is working. A prompt appears that asks if the webcam is working. However, some testers are lying and I need to find a method to make sure they can't lie.
My team wants to use a large bar code that the tester has to hold in front of the camera.
So I need to figure out how to either read the bar code, or just read the text in the bar code, which reads, "* C A M *."
It looks like the image below, but much larger.
Does anyone know where I should begin? I was thinking about using GetPixel, but I'm not sure I could or if that would be reliable enough.
