drag drop formated text into rtf box

[bratuha]

Hi All,

Could someone help me out please. I am trying to enable drag and drop operations into richtextbox control and I want to be able to drag and drop formated text (from word headings, bold fonts etc...) I've managed to drag and drop text but all the formating is getting lost

Me.RichTextBox1.AllowDrop = True
 Me.RichTextBox1.AutoWordSelection = True
 
Private Sub RichTextBox1_DragEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles RichTextBox1.DragEnter
    If (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text)) Then
      e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
    Else
      e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None
    End If
  End Sub
 
Private Sub RichTextBox1_DragDrop(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles RichTextBox1.DragDrop
    Dim i As Int16
    Dim s As String
 
    ' Get start position to drop the text.
    i = CType(RichTextBox1.SelectionStart, Int16)
    s = RichTextBox1.Text.Substring(i)
    RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text.Substring(0, i)
 
    ' Drop the text on to the RichTextBox.
    RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text + _
       e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.Text).ToString()
    RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text + s
  End Sub

maybe i am missing some property?
