Changing The Font Color By Using The Selection In A Radio Box At Runtime
Jul 31, 2009I am trying to convert a value from a radio list box that is populated by an access database. The database loads fine, I have no trouble with that. My issue is that I am trying to take the value of the radio button chosen and turn it into a font color. Therein lies my problem. I see that it cannot be a string, but when I turn it into an object, I get an error. I will note that I am using VS 2008 (Windows Vista x64), and the database is compatible with a 2002 - 2003 Access database. I am using ASP.NET for my programming, however, I am trying to program it in VB. This is my code:

RichTextBox Formatting - Selection Font Gets Set To Nothing
Dec 15, 2010I 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?

RichTextBox Selection Font (Applying 2 Styles)
Jan 18, 2009How 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)

View 14 RepliesVS 2008 : Changing Font In A RichTextBox?
Oct 31, 2009I'm trying to figure out how to change the font in a RichTextBox without having to select the text I want to change first. I know I can select text and change it like this:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("working")
Dim tfont As New Font("Arial", 16, FontStyle.Regular)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = tfont
What I want to do is set a font and then any text added to the richtextbox will use that font. Then I want to set another font and all text after that point will use that font and so on. I'm adding text to the RichTextBox with code, but I'd eventually like to add a RichTexBox to an app where the user enters the text and can change fonts like a word processor.What I'm try to accomplish would go something like this:
' Set the font for the header here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mHeader & vbCrLf
'Set the font for the body here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mBody & vbCrLf

View 3 RepliesVS 2010 : Changing The Font In A MS Word Document?
Jun 20, 2011I am attempting to create a MS Word (2010) document using automation (but not VSTO). My problem (for the moment) is that I don't know how to set a word (or set of words) to be bold. I can set the bold on an entire paragraph, but not part of the paragraph.
Here is an example:
sText = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
oPara1 = oDoc.Content.Paragraphs.Add
oPara1.Range.Font.Name = "Arial Narrow"
oPara1.Range.Font.Bold = True
[code]....
The above sample will turn the entire paragraph bold. However, if I want to just set the word "fox" bold, this I can't do. I did find a solution that will search and replace every instance of the word "fox" (or just the first instance), but this is not a valid option for the project I'm working on where the word "fox" might appear half a dozen times but only one of those (that I select) would be bold.
