Changing 1 Line Of A Text File
Lets say i have a text file with the following info:

709-1136404408, 1, 1
709-1136588846, 1, 1
709-1136766004, 1, 1
709-1136834893, 1, 2
709-1137257714, 1, 1
709-1137269537, 1, 4
709-1137524352, 1, 1
709-1138221339, 1, 1
709-1138544326, 1, 1
709-1138833752, 1, 1

And i want to change that highlighed line so that it reads:

709-1138544326, 1, 2


Is there any way to change just a specific line (assuming i knew which line needed to be changed)? If not, i can simply just re-write the text file with the changed info, but then if there was any problem right when its re-writing the text file, i could lose all the data. Thats why i wanted to avoid erasing and re-writing the text file each time i changed something.

I have a situation. I need to create a label or textbox that resizes the font to the maximum size of the text box. If the label is 400x400 pixels, and I enter "A", I will like the font to take tha whole 400x400. If I enter "The Clock", I would like the whole word to resize its font to match the with of the labelbox 400x400.

In a way to make the font scale depending on the data the user has. In a way to behave how "FIX TEXT" works on WORD art.

Changing Font Color Cause Text Box To Flicker
If my rich text box control has more text than can currenlty be dispalyed at one time and I change the font color of all the text in the text box, the rich text box will flicker.

Is there any way to prevent this repaint event from occuring?

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 ?
