This thread is for discussions of Rich Text Box Controls.

Can you help me out in printing the formated text in richtextbox.

Private Sub mnuPrintItem_Click()
   'Prints the current document using the device
   'handle of the current printer
   RichTextBox1.SelPrint (Printer.hDC)
End Sub

Let me try the option u have mentioned , but will it work with vb.net need to be checked.

There is no option of
Richtextbox1.selprint(Printer.hdc) in vb.net that is only in VB6.

Thanks

one thing you forgot - How do you toggle line wrapping on and off?!

hee hee thanks

Hi!,
Could you tell me how to display the text in Justified manner in a RT Box?
I've tried just about everything (other than writing a new control )
Tx and Regards

When printing Rich Textbox text it seems to disregard the Current X/Y command.  What gives>

By justify im assuming you meen Right, Left and Center. You need to use the

Code:

object.SelAlignment

and one of the following;

1. vbLeftJustify
   
2. vbRightJustify
   
3. vbCenter
   

for example;

RichTextBox1.SelAlignment = vbCenter

or

RichTextBox1.SelAlignment = vbLeftJustify

Hope thats some help;

Luke

What I want is to present the text in a justified manner.
Not left, right or center.

Justified as in MS Word. ie, both left and right ends are aligned.

VB has no bulit in functions or constants for what you want, im not gonna be much help here sorry!

Thanks for taking the trouble to reply, man.
Thanks a lot!
Now, where can I find the soln for this?

Hello KillerSheep,

Is this what you're looking for:

'@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Option Explicit

Public Const WM_USER = &H400
Private Const EM_SETTARGETDEVICE = (WM_USER + 72)

Public Declare Function SendMessageLong Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal LParam As Long) As Long

Public Enum ViewModes
   Default = 0
   WordWrap = 1
   WYSIWYG = 2
End Enum

Const EM_FORMATRANGE As Long = WM_USER + 57

'** Set View Mode
Public Sub SetViewMode(ByVal ViewMode As ViewModes)
   Select Case ViewMode 'Set View Mode
       Case 0 'No Wrap
           SendMessageLong rtfText.hWnd, EM_SETTARGETDEVICE, 0, 1
       Case 1 'Word Wrap
           SendMessageLong rtfText.hWnd, EM_SETTARGETDEVICE, 0, 0
       Case 2 'WYSIWYG
           On Error Resume Next
           SendMessageLong rtfText.hWnd, EM_SETTARGETDEVICE, Printer.hdc, Printer.Width
  End Select
End Sub

K, first off. Right away you mension:

Object.Save (FilePath, FileType)

WHAT FILETYPES? Can it save in RTF, Text, and what are the corresponding numbers?????????????

Secondly, I am sure that in EVERY rich text editor I have ever used, you can set different indents for different paragraphs. Yet you do not mension how to align a paragraph... "is just like setting the alignment for a whole textbox."

Aside from that it was pretty good, but can't you also do Horizontal Rules in Rich Text? I know no-one normally does, but if ya can . . .

Thanks for the info though, I was always confused about the select stuff.

Have you tried the Multiline property?

Hi,
