List Box Problem

[RAKESHTATI]

Hai,

I Am Doing A Project In VB 6.0 IN Which I AM USING A RICH TEXT BOX TheN I HAVE TO DISPLAY A Listbox WITH LIST ITEMS IN IT At The Cursor Position When Ever A Space Is Encounterd
Can Any One Suggest

[danasegarane]

Where the space will be encountered?

[zynder]

Sort of intellisense I might guess.

[Code Doc]

I'm not sure this will work, but here's some "pseudocode". Write a looping routine using INSTR to locate blanks in the .Text string property of the rich text box. When found, initialize an array pointer equal to the value returned by INSTR as it moves along the .Text string.

Count the number of blank hits. When INSTR returns a zero, no blanks are left. Now add all the values you found in the array that you counted to the list box to display them.

I Didn't Understand It Clearly Can U Explain It Clearly

[leinad31]

Read up on InStr() function so you'll understand what it is for.

might help if you expand on what you do or would like to do with it?

Is this is what your looking for?
It reads a string from a textbox and adds the position of all the spaces to a listbox.

    Dim str1 As String
    str1 = Text1.Text
    Dim i As Long
    For i = 1 To Len(str1)
        If Mid$(str1, i, 1) = " " Then
            List1.AddItem i
        End If
    Next

...or do you mean something like this ?

Like Intellisense In Rich Text Box

Try my code in post#8.

Float the listbox (.visible = true) at relevant position whenever space is pressed (keypress/keydown event). Hide the listbox (.visible = false) when it loses focus (other controls clicked, TAB pressed), user selects a listitem (RTB selstart, seltext updated accordingly) , or user cancels/presses ESC.
