How do u copy Colored text from one Richtextbox to another?

It should be easy, but I haven't found the way to do it.

[chemicalNova]

A couple of ways have worked with me:

RichTextBox1.TextRTF = RichTextBox2.TextRTF
 
RichTextBox1.SelText = RichTextBox2.TextRTF

Thx phReAk!
Sounds like they should work.

Unfortunately, the RTB's I'm using are in UserControls.
When I tried adding the TextRTF properties to the UserControl, VB6 went BOOM!!! LOL

I'll post a Resolved if I can get the TextRTF properties working so I can test these.

Got it working.

Thx again phReAk

another question of the same topic...
i want to do something like this:

Text2.Text = Text2.Text & Text1.Text

but with a RTB...
i tried:

Text2.TextRTF = Text2.TextRTF & Text1.TextRTF

but it dont work...
if someone has the answer, plz tell me...

[crptcblade]

Text2.SelStart = 200000 'Just some high number to put it at the end
Text2.SelRTF = Text1.TextRTF

Try that.

it worked!...tnx...then another question...
how can i do this:

dim dat as string
dat = text1.textrtf
winsock1.senddata dat

and in another form (or another computer):

dim dat as string
winsock2.getdata dat
text2.SelStart = Len(text2)
text2.SelRTF = dat

will this work? or is there a problem converting the text1.textrtf to string...
