hard one

how do i know if selected text, i.e. rtf.seltext, contains two or more font types such as two different font names or two different font size?

I could be wrong on this but I thought that the rtf just takes the last font selection and that is the selection for the whole box.
ie> everything is bold and NewRoman 12

Code:

---


Private Sub Form_Load()
    With RichTextBox1
        .Text = "line one" & vbCrLf
        .Font = "courier"
        .Font.Size = "14"
        .Text = .Text & "line two" & vbCrLf
        .Font = "New Roman"
        .Font.Size = 12
        .Font.Bold = True
        .Text = .Text & "line three"
    End With
End Sub

---

This will detect the text's font in the RichTextBox:

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
If RichTextBox1.SelText <> "" Then
Msgbox RichTextBox.SelFontName
End If
End Sub

---

If you want to extract the contents of the RichTextBox:

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
If RichTextBox1.SelText <> "" Then
Msgbox RichTextBox.SelRTF
End If
End Sub

I wasn't really asking for what you guys had in mind... but it's ok, I figured how to do it by errorhandling.. thans anywayz
