I don't know how to add colored text to a richtextbox.
To make already existing text colored, I have tried things like:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("colored word")
RichTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Blue
RichTextBox1.SelectionLength = 0
..so it will change the color of the found word.
The problem is, when the "colored word" exists multiple times in the textbox, it will never change theirs color. It only searches for the first "colored word" and it wont affect the others.
It would be even better when someone knows how to directly add colored text instead of changing it when it's added.

The text I am trying to put my pattern into is:
<li class="hp">
<span>HP</span>
<strong>1850 (+300)</strong>
</li>
The (+300) can go away...i'd really only like to return just the 1850.

I've decided to come back to working on an old program of mine, and it's been coming along nicely, but there's this one thing that I can't get working.I have formatting options (Bold, Underline, Italics, Strikethrough) available on my program, and they all work properly. I'm giving users the ability to export all of their text from a single page on the program to a .rtf file. However, the problem I'm experiencing is that each page has numerous RichTextBoxes on it, so I cannot simply use a RichTextBox1.SaveFile() command or something similar. I want to compile all of the text (including formatting) from all of the RichTextBoxes and put it on a single .rtf file. Currently, I'm getting the text from the RichTextBoxes using the RichTextBox1.Text command; unfortunately, that only gives me plain text without formatting. So, what I'm wondering is: how can I get the formatted text from a RichTextBox? Is there any command?

I found a strange issue with the combination of RichTextBox and RegEx.If I load a text file into a RichTextBox and use
Dim matches As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(RichTextBox1.Text, "^H(.+ ){10}
", RegexOptions.Multiline Or RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
then the RegEx will run blazing fast.OTOH if I load the text from a file straight into a string and feed this string with RegEx.Matches using
Dim FullText As String = New StreamReader("c:TempTextFile.txt", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, True).ReadToEnd
Dim matches As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(FullText, "^H(.+ ){10}
", RegexOptions.Multiline Or RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
then the regex will run for ages.Now obviously the RichTextBox does something to the text. I found that loading the text into the RichTextBox will eliminate the first 4 bytes of the text (is that the byte order mark?). However, trimming those 4 characters with SubString won't solve the problem. RichTextBox does some other processing that I'm unaware of.I'm using RegEx both on client and server side (client can load text files into a RichTextBox to test and setup various RegEx's and the server will process text files according to these previously setup RegEx's). Needless to say that a regex will run blazing fast on the text file loaded into a RichTextBox, while the very same RegEx ran through the very same text file will seem to lock up the server side service.My question: what kind of text processing does the RichTextBox do and how can I mimic the behavior in a server-side process?

I am trying to add formatted text to a rich text box..For instance, I want to add a heading as bold ("HEADING: ") and some data after it as regular ("REGULAR Data")...then a new line and do it all over again.
first name: blah
last nem: blahh
etc...etc...
I'd like to have a couple functions to perform the action.When I use the below functions to add txt to a single rtf box, I get lines in either all bold or all regular. It doesn't seem to keep the font formatting after it adds text..

I am currently working on my own "Colored textbox control" which inherits from the RichTextBox. What does the "Lines" property do? Does it generate the return array internally, or is it just passing back an array that is internally stored?
[Code]...
Can I skip the generation of "lines" and just use Me.Lines(i) etc. everywhere?The reason I ask is that I want to minimize the lag of the control, and I have to read all or a range of lines fairly commonly.

I am trying to wrap my head around getting some blinking colored text and lasting for 3 seconds on the screen. I'm creating a game where you hit submit and if the answer is correct a label with popup and blink 3 different colors for about 3 seconds also a groupbox background color change. I have found many different ways on here how to do the blinking text. I just can't figure out how to do it for 3 seconds and then disappear. Here's a general idea of the code

I've out an output rich text box called TbxOutput, and I have many different tbxoutput.appendtext("") methods in my program.I don't really know much about how to set rich text box colors, and what I specifically need is for a simple line of code that i can plug in before the tbxoutput.appendtext("" + vbnewline) methods to make that particular line output text of a different color.
For example, when my program normally outputs messages it does it in black, and i want it to remain that way by default. But when it outputs an error message, I want that particular message

So, I'm trying to make a RichTextBox which makes seperate words colored as you type them (like in Visual Studio itself ).The problem is, it's absolutely not working as I want and absolutely not the same as in Visual Studio.It's constantly running over the code each 500 milliseconds (by a timer), bugging the focus and selecting the words you want to be colored quickly.
Also, when you have something selected in the textbox,it constantly unselects when it runs over the code again (tried to fix that, but failed).So, can please someone improve this code (a lot, it's coded really bad ) so the user doesn't notice the words are getting colored?I put the words into an array with a different array containing the colors of the string array on the same index (Sorry for my "not so good" english.. But I'm sure you understand it ).

I need to constantly display large amounts of colored text in WPF or Silverlight, and I need the user to percieve it as showing up instantly.
Currently I'm doing this using a canvas and textblocks, one textblock per 80-character line, with multiple runs to a textblock to handle the different colors. There can often be 20+ runs to a line.
In a 45x80 grid of text, this gets a framerate of about 12 in Silverlight, which is sluggish. Oddly enough, it's even slower in WPF... I can only speculate that this has something to do with my dev machine's lousy video card. Maybe it's trying to hardware accelerate and actually slowing down because of it?

I am trying to put colored text into a list box. I use the following
Private Sub ListBox1_DrawItem(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DrawItemEventArgs) Handles ListBox1.DrawItem
e.DrawBackground()
Dim myBrush As Brush = Brushes.Blue
Select Case e.Index

This works fine and dandy as long as I use 8 pt font, but when I change the font to 20 I get the following: How can I get the list box to display colored text in a large font?

Okay, so what I want to do is directly output formatted RTF text to a Rich Text Box control in VB.NET. I don't want to find the text, select it and color it as it is not practical for what I'm doing. I've tried outputting RTF code but that isn't working either. Can I actually do this or will I have to write a dll?

User posts text into textbox/grid etc Button is pushed. The text is formatted as if it were in a spreadsheet. ie Only x words per row Each cell is of equal length and width.To put it another way; The first letter of the second word of the first row. should be directly above the first letter of the second word of the second row.

I have a wizard I jinned up at work to import a CSV into our database. The intro "welcome screen" has a fair bit of text regarding the catalog format, but it looks so... bland.
My thoughts turned to making an html page, adding it to the project, and then in place of the text box of instructions have a web browser control to load that specific html doc in the project.
The html doc would have all sorts of pretty formatting and what not (bold, bullet points, colors, etc).

I've been trawling the web for ages trying to find some dll's/code to be able to extract text from a PDF file and keep the formatting as much as possible.I did find something last year, but it simply took all the text and created one big list of every section in no particular order, so I couldn't read the values I needed from it.

I'm using VB2008 Express and Flash CS4. I'm trying to create a CGI-formatted text file with VB2008 and use it in Flash. Below is an image of the form I'm creating. Beside each number is a textbox for input of the answer follwed by a double-numbered textbox. There's also three radio buttons on the top of the form, "Single", "Double" and "Triple". Single is multiplied by 1 for a number-inputted text box; Double is multiplied by two and Triple is multiplied by 3. Take a look at the form below and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Visual Studio 2005 I have an application that prints formatted text to a printer. I'm using the sample code from MSDN to impliment PrintDocument.PrintPage. My function for formatting the pages uses exactly the same code.
The problem is that the actual printout is off by one line. The footer from the first page prints at the top of the next page. Subsequent pages scroll down by one line for each page printed. If I reduce my formatted text lines by one, the opposite happens... the header from the second page prints at the bottom of the first page.
I've fussed with margin settings and fonts and I just can't seem to make it print pages correctly. I'm hoping that someone out there has seen this and can offer advice.

The format I need is a group of numbers in a text file and it looks like this and it will always look like this:xxxx x xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx x xxxxxxxxxxx xxxx x
The problem is that it can be anywhere in a text file so I cannot search by a particular line.
How can I search for this type of string format in a text file?

i have a textbox in my app, and when you click the button it inputs the textbox.text into a website textarea this worked fine when i was testing it using the source code (html file on my computer) but what i did not realise was that the textarea was formatted with some java (added tools to the texarea) so now when i try it on the website it does not work as the textarea has the java running. (calls it from another url) code i was using
Me.WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("elm9").SetAttribute("value", Form1.TextBox10.Text)
IN THE HTML:
textarea
<td>
<textarea name="home" id="elm9" style="height:400; width:900">

I try to insert formatted text into Word bookmarks. The text comes from several rich text controls (we use TX Text Control) and is appended into a bookmark. The problem is that the tags are written as-is and are not interpreted.
oWord = New Word.Application
Dim strFileName As String = "\...Template.dot"
oDoc = oWord.Documents.Add(strFileName)

I tried with RTF or HTML format for my string but it is the same behavior.

Instead of the send message text box and message display text box, I have replaced it with RichTextBox for text formatting (bold/italics/underline/font/color). The problem I am facing is when I format the text and click on send, then the text displayed on the message display box (txtMessageHistory) is unformatted. [Code] Rest of the code of client is related to formatting of the rich text boxes that is not relevant to my problem. I just need to transfer the formatted text from client to server and then back to the client the same way and display the message with text formatting.
