TextBox Color and Font

**shaykan** · May 2nd, 2000, 01:23 PM

Hi All
I have a text in the TextBox, the text color is black and font size is 8.
How can I change the color and the font size only for one word or one letter in the text?

Thanks

Use a RichTextBox.

O.K Know I have in my toolbar the RichTextBox Pro 6.0, but how am I working with it.
Can you give me exact answer or example?
How can I do it?
(Change the text Color and Text FontSize of one Word or Letter in the text)

Thanks

this is kind of one of the areas that i am alright @

Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
rtb1.SelColor = vbRed
'Sets selected text to red
End Sub
Private Sub Command2_Click()
rtb1.SelFontSize = 15
'sets selected text to size 15
End Sub

good luck

Is there a possibility to make the RichTextBox -> Alignment=2(center)

Thanks

I use the same version VB 6 SP3
And I don’t have Alignment or RightToLaft option in the RichTextBox
See if you know something abut this

Thanks
