Find Dialog Box

[tek2002]

Form1 has a richtextbox with some menu items including 'Find'

Form2 is called when form1's find menu item is clicked.

The word that i am looking for in the find dialog box is highlighted in the richtexbox only when i close the find dialog box - is there a way to have the word in the richtextbox highlighted without having to close the find dialog box?

Thanks

Try
rtf.HideSelection = False

[Visual Basic]
Public Property HideSelection As Boolean

Property Value
true if the selected text does not appear highlighted when the text box control loses focus; false, if the selected text remains highlighted when the text box control loses focus. The default is true.

Remarks
You can use this property to keep text highlighted in a text box control while another form or a dialog box has focus, such as a spelling checker dialog box.
