text editing options on a form?

[MichHart]

I would like to know how to put editing options on a textbox on a form. Such things as copy, paste, font, color, bold, italics, and underline.

I have a picture of one that I have seen but I don't know how to do it.

I have the textbox created as a richtext textbox, but how do i allow the user to make appearance changes to the text?

Sincerely
MichHart

Check out the sel properties (selstart, sellength, seltext, selbold...)

Good Luck

This will give me buttons that will allow the user to make the text bold, underline, etc????

Yes you can program buttons to set these properties, but from the sounds of it, it seems you are asking about customizing a toolbar. If this is the case then start vb and select the vb application wizard. This will create a form for you with a toolbar, status bar, and a text box that you can delete and replace with the richtextbox.

Good Luck
