richtextbox - don't select all word

Hi

I've a richtextbox on my form. when i try to select some characters with the mouse the selection always stops at the end of the current word.
how can i make that the selection stops at the mouse position.

thanks

It's a bug.
Fix: Add the following line in Form_Load.
RichTextBox1.AutoWordSelection = False

2008 has same bug too. :mad:

Hi,

You can try this:

vb.net Code:

Private Sub rtxtEditor_SelectionChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles rtxtEditor.SelectionChanged
        Dim bUpdating As Boolean = False
        'Set flag for bypassing 
        bUpdating = True
 
    End Sub

rtxtEditor is your Richtextbox
Wkr,
