Highlighted Selected Text.

Hi there,

I am using VB6, SQL Server 2000, Crystal Reports 9 & farpoint 8.5 in my project, I have a memo field in my table and i want to design a form so that when a user enter any text to search, all selected text should appear as highlighted text, for example if a user enters 'sys' all rows that contains 'sys' should appear as selected text.

If results appears in Crystal reports then its fine otherwise if there is any other option please let me know.

Please help me
Thanks

You could try a ListView or a FlexGrid to show the results and coloring the rows.... :wave:

I don't want full row in different color, I want specific words in different color.

Thanks

In that case try a RichTextBox.

There are examples of using it (including what you want to do) in the "Controls" section of our Classic VB FAQs (in the FAQ forum)
