View 1 RepliesI have a form with a richtextbox and a scrollbar. I want to be able to keep appending text to the textbox without loosing my selection. I can save the selectionstart and selectionlength before I append the text and set it back and it works. The problem is when it comes to reverse selecting. The best I could do is set back the selectionstart at the right position but I have to move the mouse so it selects text again. I'm using the following functions before and after I append the text:
Private Sub StopRepaint()
Dim pt As Point
' Stop redrawing:
SendMessage(txtchat.Handle, WM_SETREDRAW, 0, pt)
[code].....
My main goal is to be able to select and copy text even when new text is being appended to the richtextbox. Anyone knows how to correctly select text in reverse OR easily fix my problem about text being deselected?

I need to reverse a string of words without using the reverse function. This is what I have so far, BUT it only shows the last two letters. For example: if i type "John" it will only give me "ho"

I need to create an unordered list of dates for a news items archive... It should look like this
2011

I can carry on with this adding in the for loops for months nested under each year however it doesn't seem very practical and will generate links for months even if there are no news item entries...
Is there a way I can build this tree automatically and only include the years/months that have news entries. I can pull a list of SQL Server timestamps from the DB for all the news items and then would like to populate the list based on that...
I'm trying to implement a search on a richtextbox. i want the scroll to move to the found area only if that area is out of the visible part of the text.
View 2 RepliesI have a RichTextBox where I expect 100 characters per line. Each line can start with the letter A, B, or C. I may have thousands of lines and most of them will start with the letter C.When the cursor is moved from one line to another and is placed on a "C" line, I need to be able to quickly locate the nearest "B" line above it. It may be hundreds of lines away. A loop to search for the "B" line using GetFirstCharIndexFromLine(x) is too slow.
The user may want to paste many lines into the textbox. If necessary, a mild wait after pasting is acceptable.Do you have any suggestions for a technique to accomplish what I need to do? Even just a high level suggestion like "use a linked list"
I am creating a machinists G-Code editor based on a couple of Rich Text Boxes. I am using one for the line numbering and synchronizing its scroll to the main RTB vScroll event. I've created a menu that populates a text line with a G-Code textual template for each command. The user presses the tab key to step through each input zone.

How to search richtextbox for a certain word?
View 5 RepliesI have a MS access database connected to a VB2008 developed software.
I want to make a search button to search through all the tables in the database.
how can I do this?

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 14 RepliesI want to get a string from the richtextbox but here how it goes in programming for example i want to get all class/function and variable names in this given code.
Quote:
Private Function Processstring(ByVal strin As String) As String

Dim strOut As String = strin

how would i get the "processstring" by getting it after the word function?
Here's the situation: I've got a form that has
- RichTextBox
- OpenButton (to load RTF file)
- SaveButton (to save RTF file after editing)
- Textbox (for search phrase)
- SearchButton
- ExitButton
- 2 RadioButtons (WholeWord and MatchCase search)
All of them are working just the way I want them to except search features; I don't know how to write them properly. At the moment, they search and highlight only the first word they encounter. E.g. say I search for word "the" in the document, only the first "the" it encounters is highlighted. The rest is just untouched.
I understand this is because I've only got few lines of simple code as follows
If rtfText.Find(txtSearch.Text, RichTextBoxFinds.WholeWord) = -1 Then
MessageBox.Show("No results returned. Please try again.", "No matching results.", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)
End If
I did try a few other snippets I found on the Internet including While loop but they didn't work as I wanted them to, and I couldn't understand them either. What I want is, which ever search option is used, when the matching result is found; it will highlight that word and when I click it again it will move onto another word. If I keep clicking, it will highlight the same words (but located in different areas) throughout the whole document and at the end, it will send back to the first matching word. Just like Adobe Reader search.
