Inserting Text Into RTB

[Fat_N_Furry]

Hello, again. I know someone out there must know how to insert text into wherever the user has that little blinking thing. Lemme know how - I need this for an app I'm building to help you all. You'll find out how it helps you once I'm done with it.

You can use the AppendText to add on text or you can use rtbTest.SelectedText="something"

What do you mean, like a Paste function?

AppendText is KIND of what I'm looking for. The only problem is that it adds text to the END of a string, not somewhere in the middle, I think. I need to put text somewhere in the middle, like, say, where the little blinking thing is. Would the .SelectedText = "something" do that?

Yeah. A paste function would work nicely, except it would delete whatever the user has in his/her clipboard. If you could do something like in Microsoft Word, however, (have more than one clipboard) that'd fix the problem.

Ahh! Yes! RichTextBox1.SelectedText = "something" worked nicely. Thankyou both for your help.
