[RESOLVED] spacses in rich text

hello

any body knows how can i add a space befor and after any symbol (such as (,) . - ....etc) in a rich text box

Do you mean like while typing or when you allready have the text and you would like to change it?

i mean if i alredy have the text

VB Code:

Dim i As Long
    With RichTextBox1
        .SelStart = 0
            For i = -1 To Len(.Text)
                .SelStart = .SelStart + 1
                .SelText = " "
            Next i
    End With

thanks gavio for your fast reply

but this code adds spaces between all letters and i whant to add spaces between the symbols like ? \ . ;

for example if the text was :
Hello, where are you? please (call)

it will be:
Hello , where are you ? please ( call )


:bigyello:

VB Code:

With RichTextBox1
        .Text = Replace(.Text, ",", " , ")
        .Text = Replace(.Text, "?", " ? ")
        .Text = Replace(.Text, "\", " \ ")
        .Text = Replace(.Text, ".", " . ")
        .Text = Replace(.Text, ";", " ; ")
        .Text = Replace(.Text, "(", " ( ")
        .Text = Replace(.Text, ")", " ) ")
    End With

EDIT: Or..

VB Code:

RichTextBox1.Text = Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(RichTextBox1.Text, _
         ",", " , "), "?", " ? "), "\", " \ "), ".", " . "), ";", " ; "), "(", " ( "), ")", " ) ")
