Formatting text in RichTextBox

[Mystique]

Hello
Is there any way to format text with tags (something like html tags) in a
RichTextBox? Something similar to this:

string aStr;
aStr = "<b>this is bold</b> this is normal";

richTextBox1.Text = aStr;



Regards,

Mystique

Hello,

You should be able to format content programmatically using the SelectedText property... However, if you were really willing to invest that much effort, you could potentially study the RTF format on the wotsit.org and use it to create the Tag file...

Hmm...

Why do you need this functionality?

Mystique,

Generally, yes. You can formated text in RichTextBox by inserting rtf
code into RTB. For example, to create bold text you can use:

"\b this is bold\b0 this is normal"
