    Dynamic text color

    I'm working on creating a new version for my MultiCode editor. I wanted to add in something like visual studio, and other programs use like color changing according to the certain piece of code like:

    <html>
    <body>
    <p>Hello</p>
    </body>
    </html>

    Please help or make suggestions if you can!
    Thanks!!

    Using standard Framework controls, your only choice is the RichTextBox. There's a submission by Icyculur in the VB.NET CodeBank forum on syntax highlighting. It's still not really ideal though. You might want to take a look at the open-source IDE SharpDevelop as it contains a code editor that you can use in your own apps.
