Rtf Text Box - How To Avoid Text Color Change On Text Selection
Hi,
I am using an rtf text box because i am using colored text.
The text uses more then one color.
My problem is, after a selection is made and the selected text highlighted, after the next click, (the highlighting is gone) the colored text will turn to black.
How can i avoid this "decoloring" after a selection, but still enable the user to select text?
Since the selected text is colored in more then one color - i cant just recolor it back again...
or can i?

Thanks
Dani

Richtextbox Text Changing Color When Font Size Changes
Hello,

I have code to change the font size of the text in my Richtextbox, but when it does change the font size, it also changes the color of whatever the text currently is to black. In other words, if the text is currently red or blue, it will change the text to black.


Code:
combo1.additem "8"
combo1.additem "9"
combo1.additem "10"
combo1.additem "11"
combo1.additem "12"
combo1.listindex = 0

Private Sub Combo1_Click()
RichTextBox1.SelStart = 0
RichTextBox1.SelLength = Len(RichTextBox1.TextRTF)
RichTextBox1.Font.Size = Combo1.Text
End Sub


Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening ?

Thanks...

Change Color Of Text
greetings, i am new to visual basic and i'm having difficulty changing color of a text. I'm currently using visual studio 2008. My program is similar to a search engine in which you type a term inside the searchbox and the program will produce the results in a separate message box that will pop up. I would like for the search results in the message box to be changed to a different color.
I've found that
Code:
Backcolor.RGB(0.0.0)
might be my solution but i'm not certain.

Can't Get Text Color To Change
First I'll say, according to what I see when goto Start/Programs it shows Visual Basic 5.0 CCE. I thought I had been using VB6 but I guess I'm not. I doubt much changed wtih VB6 with what I'm about to ask so I figured I would ask here instead of in VB General.

I'm trying to get the color of the text inside a textbox to change. I can't get it to do it. I've read through several messages here and have tried all kinds of crazy stuff and none of it has worked.

What I have is two separate text control array, Text1(0-99) and Text2(0-99). Text2 overlaps at the bottom right of Text1. Text2 is smaller than Text1.

Text1 will will display certain elements only and is disabled so the showen elements can't be changed. The displayed elements are suppose to be black. They are gray in reality.

The Text1 elements that can be typed in are suppose to be red and they do come across as red.

Text2 elements, when shown will come across blue, they come across gray.

I have tried everything imaginable and nothing works, below shows what I've been trying right now and the results are as indicated above.

For j = 0 To 9
For i = 0 To 9
k = (j * 10) + i
Text1(k).TabStop = False
Text1(k).ForeColor = vbBlack
Text1(k).Enabled = False
Text1(k).Text = tmp(j + 1, i + 1)
If Text1(k) = "" Then Text1(k).TabStop = True
If Text1(k) = "" Then Text1(k).Enabled = True
If Text1(k) = "" Then Text1(k).ForeColor = vbRed
Next
Next

For i = 0 To 9
For j = 0 To 9
k = (i * 10) + j
Text2(k).Enabled = True
Text2(k).Locked = True
Text2(k).TabStop = False
Text2(k).ForeColor = vbBlue
Text2(k).Visible = False
Text2(k).Text = Mid$(norder(i + 1), j + 1, 1)
Text2(k).Enabled = False
Next
Next

As you can see I have tried just about everything I have seen in the past messages that I have seen so far and I'm still not having any luck. Text2 should be disabled and no tabstop should be set for Text2. Text2 is also invisible until a button is pushed.

Any help would be appreciated. It seems like it should work fine but it doesn't.

Thank,
Ryan

Hi..

Change TextBox Size According To Text
I need to create a textbox that is 76 characters wide and 46 rows. How can I do this beyond eyballing it. This is because what they type in a text box has to appear the exact same on a report. What I need is once they have typed in 76 characters it needs to go to the second line where they can type in another 76 characters an so on. If the word is too large to fit on the line they are typing it on it need to go to the next. Very much like word. I was just wondering if there is some kind of formula that would help me convert the size of 76 characters and make the textbox that size.

Change Color Of Text In Richtextbox
I'm using a richtextbox as a regular textbox (I'm not doing any formatting). I'm using a rtb because it can handle much more text than a regular textbox.

But there's no setting to change the color of the text like in a regular textbox.

So, how would I go about changing the color of the text?

I'm just using it like
richtextbox1.text = "text string"

Thanks,

So How Do You Change Text Color In Excel??
Did some searching and can't see where I'm going wrong. I'm trying to change the text color to white. I'm assuming you use "font.color = ...." to change the text color in a cell, correct?

Code:


vWB.Sheets(1).Cells(6, 5 + c).font.color = RGB(255, 255, 255)


vWB.Sheets(1).Cells(x) is fine, I've been using this work book all over my code, just having trouble setting the text font to white for particular cells. Would also like to be able to specify a range, but this also errors...

Code:


vWB.Sheets(1).Range(vWB.Sheets(1).Cells(6, 5 + c), vWB.Sheets(1).Cells(6, 5 + c + 1)).font.color = RGB(255, 255, 255)

How To Get Better RTF Control To Change Text Background Color?
I have previously been using RichTextBox Control (SP6) - RICHTX32.OCX.

However, I would like to be able to allow users to highlight the text by changing the background colour of a selection, as well as chanigng the forecolor (only forecolor is available in the above)

I read about Microsoft's RichEdit Control but cannot seem to find it, despite having Microsoft Office 2007 BETA installed on my computer. Where can I get the OCX for this please, or another free control that functions like an RTF control with better capabailities.

I am unsure if the richedit control is .NET only, or if there is a similar feature for VB6 (SP6)

Thanks
