rich text box

[ArizonaRedneck]

I've got a rich text box in a vb.net windows form. When the page loads I call the "LoadFile" method to populate it with a .rtf file. This works just fine. My problem is when I try to do a replace function to replace *Name with variable text in order to make it dynamic (i.e. Replace(RichTextBoxPrintCtrl1.Text, "*Name", "Bob Dole"). The text shows up with the correct name (Bob Dole) instead of *Name, however... the formatting of all of the text is completely gone! how can I replace the text but keep the formatting?

The .Text property contains only text, not formatting. If you want to keep the formatting, work with the RTF property...but be careful not to reoplace RTF formatting.
