rich text box headache

[mike7510uk]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a rich text box on my form and have already loaded the .rtf file into it with no problems. I now need to search the opened file, this seems to work but it only displays the first instance of the word.

once you get the text set focus of the cursor to that position and then find again this will search only the part of the document which is after the cursor

this must do the job

if you want the exacty code i wont mind giving it to you,JUST REPLY

This is an example code::

//declare as global variable
Static CurPos As Long, FindString As String

//search function
CurPos = RichTextBox1.Find(FindString, Curpos)
If CurPos = -1 Then
MsgBox "Not found"
Else
RichTextBox1.SetFocus
CurPos = CurPos + Len(StringToFind)
End If

i'm not very sure of the code but you must have understood what to do
