I am currently making a Syntax Highlighter.How can I highlight certain text inside a RichTextBox ? I am Currently Using This Code :
Public Function Highlight(ByVal highlightcolor As String, ByVal ParamArray WordsToFind() As Object)
'Loop through all the words you specified:
For i As Integer = 0 To UBound(WordsToFind)[code].....
but it will only Highlight 1 of the word I set / Change the whole text into the selected colour
Example :
'I wanted to Highlight "Hello"
'I put this code into RichTextBox_TextChanged:
Highlight("blue","Hello")
'And It will Only highlight The First "Hello" inside my Text :
'Hello my name is XXX, Hello
And, can I Highlight text between certain text / after certain text
