    Backcolor

    Does anybody know how to change the color af the selected text in a RTFbox ,
    not the backcolor of the whole textbox, just the selected text ?
    Something like in Word you can use a marker.


    Thank you

    I think there is a SelColor property of the RTB. I've never used it, but I think i remeber seeing it in the object browser.

    You can't do this with the RTF control that microsoft provide with VB - you can however, download a free RTF control (based on RichEdit2.0) from http://vbaccelerator.com - this supports all the standard RTF stuff like tables, background bitmaps, hyperlinks etc. It also comes with all the source code.
