CommonControls (Replacement of the MS common controls)

[softv]

Whilst not an answer, how to fix the ".SelColor"-Problem... I'd say,
that a RichTextBox is not the ideal Control for a "Log-Viewer-for-large-Files".

Any virtual Grid or List-Control (heck, even a simple PictureBox) can solve the problem of:
loading, visualizing (and scrolling through) a 100MB-log with a first-load-reaction-time between 0.2-0.8 seconds

That time mostly determined by, how fast you can load that file from SSD or Disk into a ByteArray.

Thanks a TON, olaf.

I had always thought that I should try loading large text files in Krool's VBFlexGrid and try but never got time for the same, as other things got up in the priority list. So, is it possible Olaf, with VBFlexGrid too?

I have not tried your VListBox code yet. I just thought of thanking you first, promptly, after reading your solution using VListBox. Will try it soon. Thanks again.

Kind Regards.
